| Navarre Beach, near Pensacola |
 |
| The beach is on the Santa Rosa Sound |
 |
| Damage caused by hurricane |
 |
| Notice all the boards that have been replaced after hurricane damage |
 |
| On to Pensacola Beach |
 |
| In hurricane country? |
 |
| Built to take on any storm... |
 |
| This is a barrier island, a tiny strip of land off the mainland |
 |
| The emerald waters that Florida is known for |
 |
| This area is typical for flooding...we find out later |
 |
| Miles of beach, no one around |
 |
| Except for the wildlife |
 |
| Ft. Pickens, built in 1829 |
 |
| From out of nowhere, we're hit by a storm |
 |
| The road was closed after the ocean and sand covered the road |
 |
| As soon as that road opened up, we were out of there! |
You are closing the circle now as you round the corner of the USA on your way back to Southern California. It sure has been a beautiful ride and I have enjoyed your pictures very much. These wild and sugar sand beaches of the Gulf Shores National Seashore are no exception.
