my Florida adventure, part two
Today, we went to Tarpon Springs, which is famous for sponges and Greek food and fishing boats. It’s a scenic town and a pleasant place to take a walk with friends, have a nice lunch at a Greek restaurant, and buy souvenirs. There are some really fun things to see, like my new boyfriend, pictured
