Gulf Crossing / Florida

Today was an exciting day. We got an early start from McComb, Mississippi this morning. We were grounded yesterday due to weather and couldn't make it to the planned destination, New Orleans. The weather was a little iffy today, but with an early start it ended up being a beautiful trip through the wonderland of cloud formations.

This was also our first large water crossing. We spent about 30 minutes over the Gulf of Mexico from Pensacola (we thought of you Tucker) to Apalachicola, Florida. The second leg was a little over an hour cutting across the Gulf. We didn't see land for about 40 minutes. I thought it was pretty exciting. Subie ran like a clock. It was fun to wear our new life vest/ belts.
