THE DRY TORTUGAS...GO THERE IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN THERE!!!

 We are on the Yankee Freedom Ferry to get out to the Dry Tortugas. It is a primitive island that has Fort Jefferson and excellent snorkeling right off the island...in fact it is a National Park!  

 We decided to camp on the beach for a couple of nights...and that was one of the best decision we have ever made!! This place made our top 5 places to visit...but you must camp to get the full experience!!!  We cooked brats and corn on the cob and watched the sun set on our private beach...there were like 8 people on the whole island after the ferry left!

 After a long day of snorkeling Seth got a sun burn strip on his lower back...very minor considering there was no shade!!!

 We got to do our devotion time in the Lord's beautiful creation!

 It was the clearest water we had ever seen...full of a new adventure everytime you went out snorkeling!!

 Our lonely shade tree!

 My husband sleeps in public places just like this...so weird haha!

 Dirty Dancing reenactment!

 If you look in the lower left hand corner you might think that is sea grass...but no those are millions of teeny tiny bait fish!!!

Things we saw snorkeling....Nurse Shark, squid, Tarpon, Clown Fish, Parrot Fish (Drag Queen of the Sea), Barracuda, Billions of Bait fish everywhere, Angel Fish, Hog Fish (good eatin' fish), jelly fish, puffer fish, grouper, brain coral, fan coral, Conchs...ect...everytime we went out we saw something new!!
