And here's our first Sarasota sunset, right out our aft deck windows at Marina Jacks Marina. That little strip of land with palm trees across from us is a little park that has squirrels for daisy to tree into the liveoaks. Out on the end of the park is a statue of dolphins jumping in a fountain. It's just gorgeous here, and an easy walk right to the big downtown streets nearby.
The entire trip today was through the typical Florida canals and bays, lined with million dollar homes...
and huge condos. Unlike the "Big Bend" we have been in, this is the Florida that comes to mind when you think of it. They're both Florida, but this one is what I think of when somebody says Florida.
We also cruised through Tampa Bay today/ It's a very large bay and the Bay Bridge is huge and memorable.
This is Marina Jacks as we came in from the bay. We'll be here for about 3 weeks, just enjoying the area, so my blog entries may be less frequent until we start cruising again. Just imagine us doing whatever you think when you think of Florida.
Hi again!
ReplyDeleteI'll be in FL from Mar 9-14 with Barbara Early and Cathy Bigot (from Roosevelt!) Cathy has a winter home N of Orlando, so I doubt if we'll go to Sarasota, but you never know. I understand that there's a GREAT garden in Sarasota. More later.
