Weeki Wachee Springs State Park

On Monday June 17th we took a little family trip to Weeki Wachee Springs State Park.  It is a natural spring that goes 170+ feet down (they have never reached the bottom) and flows 8 miles out into the Gulf of Mexico.  It is all fresh water.  It is clear, beautiful, refreshing, bright, full of fish, manatees, and mermaids.  Yep, you herd me right.  Mermaids live there and they do a show 5 times a day!!  Not only do mermaids live there, you get to meet them and touch their fins.  Micah & Savannah LOVED the mermaids.  They now honestly, truly believe in them.

 The spring is behind Leif in this picture.  You can see the dock with people jumping into the water.  They also have 4 slides that empty into the spring. 

  Look how fresh the water is.  ALL NATURAL SPRINGS!
