Tarpon Springs, Florida

On Friday, March 27, 2009, we spent a day in Tarpon Springs. What a fantastic find...a small working harbor town, known as the "sponge capital" of Florida. Working Greek "spongers" and boats line the docks, fabulous Greek restaurants...the sights and smells were authentic old-world Florida.
On the way back to our hotel, we also witnessed some exciting beach activity.
