Florida is north of Georgia and west of Alabama. The gulf coast is farther east than the East coast. The Atlantic coast is far- ther west than the Pacific coast. Florida is south of the border of Mexico: Florida is nearer to South America than to Canada, but South America is nearer to ;Canada than to Florida. To be exact: Graceville, Fia., is faither noxtt than Valdosta, Ga. * Pensacola Fia., is 120 miles far- \ther west than Eufaula, Ala.
