Last night we spent the night in Tallahassee, and it rained buckets, thunder and lightening all night.
 
Today we pulled into an RV park in Robertsdale, Alabama, just outside of Mobile. We figured we'd do a couple of day trips from here.
 
So after settling in we drove the Alabama/Florida coast highway to Pensacola Lake. Here is the 3 mile bridge we crossed to get to Pensacola Lake.



 




We walked along the beach - just to say we'd stuck our toes in the water. 
 



We walked along the street to see the area - here is a huge gondola-style ferris wheel  - we didn't go on it, it was very high in the sky!



We had dinner here at Flounders Chowder House. Great place! The service was awesome and the food was too - Michel said the chowder was excellent. It was evident that the 'staff' there really enjoys being there.  





And why would they be - the restaurant is located right on the beach - this is the backside of this restaurant!

 

And the deserts are out-of-this-world - This is the famous 'key lime pie'. Of course we ordered this to share, and ended up bringing MOST of it home with us.
