Florida Spring Training Trip - Day 19

We had a great day at the beach today.  The weather was perfect - not too hot, but sunny, with a gentle breeze.  There is a state park, Honeymoon Island, just up the road.  It has a very popular beach, lots of nature trails and a wide variety of wildlife throughout the park.  There is  also a ferry out to Caladesi Island , a small barrier island just across the sound from the park.  We had been out there twice before on previous trips and wanted to go there again.  The island has a great beach with lots of sand and plenty of sea shells.  We relaxed on beach chairs under an umbrella and took a walk on the beach.  After about 4 hours we had enough sun for the day and caught the ferry back to our car.

We picked up a few groceries on the way home and had take-out spaghetti from a nearby Italian restaurant for dinner.  The Phillies are playing the Red Sox at their park tonight so we watched some of the game on MLB.TV on the computer, before going to bed.  More baseball tomorrow.  The Phillies play Pittsburgh at home and the weather looks like it will be a nice day to watch the game.

Here are a few pictures of Honeymon State park and Caladesi Island:
