Day 118. December 2, 2013. Tarpon feeding frenzy

We packed up and headed for our second Keys campground.  This one is John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.  It is about 60 miles east.  On our way, we stopped for lunch at a tourist, but fun, restaurant on the water.  There are hundreds of huge tarpon in the water that you can feed.  This also attracts the seagulls.  We had a seafood burrito while watching the fish jump.  

It is really tropical here.  Coconut palms, papaya, and mango.  See photo of banana tree.

This state park is really nice.  They have lots of activities that we want to check out, such as glass-bottomed boat and snorkeling trips.  

For dinner, we had the remaining paella mix, sautéed with onion and garlic, over with a cheese/wine sauce.  If we don't catch a fish tomorrow, I need to go shopping!
