We all slept in, got up and had cereal and English muffins for breakfast (and coffee, of course). We left for St. Pete and our favorite Italian Market, Mazzaro's! We picked up some of our favorites (biscuits, pizzelles, wine and Italian candies). From there, we went to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.
My work, Polk Museum of Art, has a reciprocal membership deal with the Aquarium, August through December. All three of us got in free today! It's a good thing, too, because we were not impressed with the facility. It has become famous because of the movie about the dolphin, Winter, with the robotic tail fin. Winter lives at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and it was MOBBED by people. The ticket price is $19.95 per person. We 'saved' $60 with our Museum membership, which was awesome!
On the way home, we were all ready for lunch, so got off the interstate and pigged out at Buddy Freddy's Southern Buffet. Yum!
Now we are home, watching the Jodie Foster movie, "The Brave One". It is good, but a tough one.
Hope you are having a good weekend. I hope more of my friends are able to see this blog! Let me know, please!! Peace, love & hugs from Blogger!
I would hate to pay $20 to get into an aquarium! And SURPRISE! Here I am in your new blog!

DeleteHi Terri....success!! I can see and read your blog. I liked all your pictures of the aquarium. My daughter is headed north this week to compete in the Ironman competition in Benton Harbor, MI....her first triathlon.
DeleteTesting out my commenting capabilities ~ That does sound expensive, but I know some aquariums are even more expensive. Glad to hear you were able to get a great discount, and you are enjoying your time with your grandson.

ReplyDeleteI'm here, Terri! I've never been to an aquarium, something to put on the bucket list. I see the others who have subscribed have a nice picture of themselves next to their name, I need to figure out how to do that. I have one on my google+, but I guess it doesn't transfer over.
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures!! Sounded like you had a wonderful Saturday! A southern buffet sounds so yummy!!
