Howard Johnson Express Inn Pensacola Fl

Pensacola... the show was good, the hotel was horrible.<br><br>For the record, Pensacola does not count as Florida. The panhandle is not Florida. I know Florida. Pensacola is Alabama light. <br><br>I couldn't even find a Publix nearby!<br><br>On to New Orleans!!!!! <br><br>:)<br>

De camino hacia New Orleans, paramos a visitar dos Parques Nacionales, el Big Lagoon, uno de los mejores parques en la costa de los USA, y el Tarkiln Bayou Park, caracterizado por las raras especies de plantas como algunas carnivoras.<br><br> On the way to New Orleans, we stopped to visit two national parks, Big Lagoon, one of the best parks on the coast of the USA, and Tarkiln Bayou Park, featuring the rare species of plants and some carnivores.<br>

Well, Liz, Cathy and TJ had the margaritas. I stuck with Sprite for this one. TJ caught a few waves at the beach even though there was hardly anything to catch. Then we went back to Liz's where Cathy took control as chef. She and Liz made this awesome bruschetta ...

not good news to report today. I left pensacola FL this morning bound for Miami. Fate had another plan in store...5 or six miles east on I-10 traffic stopped cold. Uuugh...i hate that. Stop and go traffic and no lane splitting makes me cranky. Each time i have to stop theres a high chance of me losing my balance and falling over. The next thing that happened was the state troopers directed everyone off at SR 90, which parallels I-10 but goes thru the little towns and has ...

... port. Then i was told the story of how the neighbor's truck had been stolen from their driveway and returned to that same driveway one year later. I parked in the barn.<br><br>We had some good food and talked about family stuff. Then came yet another embarassing chaper in my life: my aunt insisted on washing my dirty clothes from the trip so far. ughhhh. there was no getting out of it. When youre 36, the last thing you want is your ...

... driver seemed to think he had an auto-pilot to guide this massive silver bullet down an 8 lane highway.<br><br>Trace and I made our way through Louisiana to Mississippi and Alabama then into Florida. We took a cab from the bus station in Pensacola, over a very long, unusually skinny bridge to the over-sized sandbank that is Pensacola Beach. It is a lovely place, once you get over the hurricane damage,....oh , and the rednecks,....but they&#8217;re pretty docile as long as ...

Leeroy experienced a road trip U.S.A style 6:30am straight to the coach with a stop at Pensacola beach nice white sands e.t.c. for lunch &amp; Avo...too bad there was a thunder storm warning so beach was closed for the afternoon so ended up a 8 hour straight drive.. the seas were angry that day my friends.

... I was still pretty exhausted and didn't have my head in the game the way I should have. I am sure that I will learn to stay closer to my camera in future ventures so I don't lose the memories of what makes all this travel so great.<br>

... This Earthwatch expedition is 13 days long and I will be helping gather data on nesting behaviors of Hawksbill Sea Turtles which nest there every summer (remember, seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere!). I hope to learn a lot about the conservation efforts that are going on there to help preserve this endangered species for future generations. Secondly, I want to visit as many Australian National Parks, Wildlife Refuges ...

... but even a foot outside of it is a stark contrast to the few modern office buildings they've errected. The largest buildings, though, belong to AT&T, BellSouth, and the Alabama Department of Power. I don't think that Alabama produces any local titans capable of putting up their own big buildings. Birmingham does, though, have plenty of monuments to the civil rights movement. I got a few pictures of some of them from a park that I stopped by and have ...
