Siesta Key: Day 3

This was our final day in Siesta Key so we tried to get in as much beach time as we could.  In the morning, after breakfast, we hung out at Crescent Beach, right by our resort.  I think we both walked about a mile along the shore, it was so peaceful.  Then we enjoyed lunch at Siesta Key Oyster Bar and headed back to Siesta Beach.  We could barely bring ourselves to leave that afternoon to head back to Clearwater!  But it was a very smart idea...since Siesta Key is about an hour drive from Clearwater (where we flew into), we figured it would be probably be best to stay close to the airport our last night in Florida before our early morning flight.  It was sooo nice to be nearby and not have to wake up as early and/or risk running into traffic or traveling problems and possibly miss our flight.  Good on us!
 Breakfast at The Good Egg
 Yoga on the beach!


 The whole outside of the restaurant was covered in dollar bills - I can think of better ways to spend that cash.  Silliness.

 You can see by this photo of how far out the water was waist deep.  We were easily 200 yards out at one point and still, only to our waists.  Also, the sand is 99% quartz so it's never hot.  That in itself was awesome!  It was very fine and white, looked alot like powdered sugar.  Ahhh, heavenly.
 It was much less crowded the two previous days



 On Clearwater Beach.  We ate at Frenchy's Rockaway Grill.  When we checked into our hotel, the guy at the front desk asked where we were having dinner.  When we said on Clearwater Beach, he responded with "Oh, you're eating at Frenchy's then?"  Needless to say, it's a popular place!


It was overcast most nights of our trip but we were still able to see some splash of color as the sun set before the rain started this night.
