We are traveling again, but not in our RV. As I am sure anyone reading this blog knows, we are in Tokyo visiting Brian & Vanessa and baby Brianna.

An odd named town…


Today was spent in the Florida panhandle. We stayed on I-10 through Tallahassee and then drove the rest of the day on US 90, which parallels I-10. A nicer, more relaxed ride than the interstate. We stopped for the night — gaining an hour after driving into Central Time — in the oddly named town of De Funiak Springs. The campground is very small and located on a charming lake just north of town. When I called to ask if they had a space for us, the owner (the wife) told me to call when we were about five miles from town. I did, and this time her husband answered. He told me where to turn off route 90, and to call again. He met us at the next turn, and we followed his truck directly to our campsite. Because we were traveling through, he gave us the only pull-through site in the park, so we did not have to unhitch the car. He also told us to call on our way back, and they would save the spot for us. What a nice place to stay!
