Manatee Springs

We only drove an hour and we're here for 3 days. The big deal here is that manatees hang out near the outflow of the spring during the winter because the spring water is 72 degrees year round. The spring flows into the Suwannee river and that is where the manatees are. Watching manatees is not particularly exciting but we did spend some time doing that this afternoon. These pics are of the spring (including scuba divers) & a 90 foot deep sink hole that connects to 5 miles of underwater caverns.
