Florida day 9: Divers and Pelicans!

Today we decided to go to explore the beaches near by our villa. First stop - a beach near Clearwater...

The first beach stop on the day
We had our lunch on the sand, gradually moving up the beach as the sea started to head in. We almost didn't realise and it was a part of the beach with cars on and a few people had parked their cars a liiiiittle too close to the sea.


The beach car park

Although we completely forgot our sun cream and I wore a top with a lace pattern that left me with 2 lovely burn marks on my chest... always wear sun cream kids!

Walks along the bridge and past some beaches
I think this was a pelican? I'm so uneducated...

There were a few beaches that we explored and they were so nice, so we walked along to explore, although there weren't many cafes or shops to go in nearby.

Crazy diving guy whose legs were splashing around for absolutely ages


We then headed home to go in the pool for a bit. The owners had left beds, hoops, chairs, 2 tubes and a ball in the garage so we had a game of volleyball in the pool for an hour or so.

Florida's evenings (dusk?) are stunning

Then we got changed to go to the memorial park and played some tennis, and then rounders. Somehow I didn't totally fail at tennis but why are rackets SO SO heavy?!


It was a good opportunity to have a play with the camera

This day wasn't overly exciting but it was lovely exploring a new part of Florida and I hope you enjoyed it! If you missed it, click here for day 8.
