And The Days Dwindle Down

 Today we set off for Treasure Island, near St. Petersburg, because we heard the beaches and accommodations there were very good and we wanted to see for ourselves. Yes, the beaches are good and quite huge, similar to Siesta Key. From the parking lot it would help to have a camel to get to the sea. See photos ...


Then we drove to nearby St. Pete to see what beaches there were like. Top quality and quite similar. See photo ...

So we're gradually getting a good picture of a substantial stretch of Florida's west coast.

Later in the day we stopped for supper at Walt's Fish Market and Restaurant close to our place. This was Carol's idea and a very good one. We had the best sea food meal ever. Below is a Google street view of the place...

It was dark when we arrived for supper and the place was full. These people know how to prepare fish! I had cod and Carol had a mixed sampling of three or four different items.

Tomorrow we begin packing and preparing the car for an early Saturday morning departure. It's time.
