Florida Spring Training Trip - Day 4

We slept in again today and didn't make it to breakfast at Lenny's before the game.  We did arrive at the game in plenty of time however.

The skies were clear but it was cool and a little breezy.  It's hard to believe the low 60's with a little wind is cool, but we were actually a little cold sitting in the shade.  It seemed 20 degrees warmer in the sun so we got up a few times and watched the game from one of the many sunny areas.

The Phillies won this game, so most of the fans went away happy.  There were a lot of Detroit Tiger fans at the game who also seemed happy just to be out of Michigan (the scoreboard said the game-time temperature in Detroit was 14 degrees).

After the game we went to another beachfront restaurant near our hotel called Hogan's Beach, named after the famous wrestler, Hulk Hogan.  There was a lot of Hulk Hogan memorabilia throughout and he apparently lives, or at least has a house, in the area.  The food was good and another big crowd was present . All three of the nearby beachfront restaurants we have visited have been very busy. With the large number of hotels in this area and the tourist season beginning, there is a good market for beach-side dining.

There is no home game tomorrow, so we will sleep-in again and plan the day after breakfast, maybe at Lenny's.

Here are a few more pictures from today, including some of our hotel:
