After circling Mullet Head Island, I usually paddle across the entrance to Haulover Canal, and explore canals to the south.  But today, manatees to the north diverted my attention.


 


 


 




 


 
 


 

 Bairs Cove
 Where manatees get up close and personal
No reason to touch them

 


 
 Mosquito Lagoon


 
 Mid 20th Century ruins.  Everything had to go when NASA came in.

 New information  kiosk at the curve in the dirt road.
 Scrub jay trail

The view from my table at El Leoncito
 A new spot for me.
Cuban and Mexican, with a view
Complimentary chips and salsa
 
Black bean soup for the Cuban
 Enchilada and taco for the Mexican

NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building. I asked my waiter what is was like here during the Space Shuttle days.  Busy,


 The red roofed building is a B&B

 




 
Potential future rocket launch, kayak, and dinner location.

  2. And continuing to back up. Having my computer down almost 2 full days does not help. Nor does kayaking 4 days a week. ;)
