Good Weather Saturday


Photos.

After a cold week, Saturday morning looked promising. Fairly warm, early on, and bright Florida sun. We got an early start and were at John's Pass by 11:00 a.m. We've been there many times, and have always seen dolphins -- but not yesterday. The area was actually quite empty, and most activities (boat rides, jet ski rentals, fishing ...) were available.

We walked through the main tourist area, up the ramp to the famous boardwalk. We had lunch at Bubba Gump's and left the area soon after. I like the shade but by the time lunch was over, I was freezing cold and was happy to bask in the sun for a few minutes.

Kites on the beach
We walked a little on the Sunset Beach boardwalk and went to 4:00 p.m. mass at St. John Vianney. I think the ADD must have kicked in because the homily seemed interminable. Couldn't wait to get out of there.

We had dinner at reliable Leverock's. My salmon was good but I think I preferred last week's mahi-mahi tacos. Drinks were good all round.

Best: kites on the beach at Treasure Island.

About Me

My photo
The first blog was a simple travel journal written during an Alaskan cruise in 2008. I document all of our trips, and refer to my posts fairly frequently, especially when we're planning a return visit to a destination. I enjoy recording events in both words and pictures -- blogging is one more way of staying in touch with family and friends in this wonderful, connected world. I've been retired since April of 2013, and there's no shortage of things to do or activities to enjoy. I enjoy writing about everything ... and nothing.
