12/7/11, Clearwater

Relaxing day spent in Clearwater. It took about an hour and a half to get there from our villa in Orlando. We found a perfect parking place and a great spot on the beach. The beach is absolutely stunning with wonderful white sand. The beach is fed by the warm waters of the Gulf and swimming in it is a pleasure. I do not exaggerate when I say it is like sitting in the bath. I have never felt anything like it. Could have stayed in it all day.



David spent most of the afternoon crashing into the warm waves.

 
Look at me!

OOOPS!
Got it!!

It was very hot and on our return to the villa we realised that we were all rather red. Alison looks like the pepperoni on her pizza. Talking about the pizza, we stopped in dominoes on the 192 on the way home. Their menu and the taste of their pizzas are nowhere near as good as at home.

    We're sure it was more comfortable paddling in the water at Clearwater than in the Minch! Did you manage to pass Lakeland (!!) this time without incident!!! Have a great day.

  2. We ate before we left, then stayed on the highway, giving Lakeland a wee wave as we passed! Got a bit lost when we reached Clearwater though - Colin decided to follow the SatNav instead of the road signs heading for the beach....bad move. In the end it woekedout great though. We got parked one block back from the middle of the beach...minimum walking for David :-)
