Love the updates. We are on Holiday Isle for the week of June 22. Water looks beautiful. High waves, red flag. And purple flag, probably for sea ice.
we are staying in Santa Rosa Island, and this morning (06/23/2013) we swam until the rain came. There were a lot of ‘blobs’ of june grass that varied from the size of golf balls to the size of baseballs. There were also some jellies not as many as yesterday), and my nephew actually got stung once. Even with the june grass and jellies, we stayed in the water because the temperature was perfect and we only get to the beach once a year.
