Took off early this morning to pick up Marty and head out to Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge and Canaveral National Seashore to get in a serious salt water paddle in. It was amazing, we had countless playful dolphin at every turn. It got super hot and sunny then one tiny cloud shaded us and then cooled us even further with some rain. A few miles from returning to our van we paddled over a herd (12-14) giant resting manatee that exploded as we glided over them. After regaining our wits we glided over a small pod of Manatee (4-6) that also exploded underneath us.

Found a small fish house named Goodrich Seafood Restaurant on the water and ordered a mess of fried mullet, shrimp, and spicy cheese grits. 

A perfect day.
