Last week, on Sunday I arrived to the Sarasota/ Bradenton area of Florida to spend a week with my friend Nadia, before she leaves the US for a permanent move to the UK.
Monday
We went to The John and Mabel Ringling Museum of Art.

Afterwards, we had lunch at the Beach House restaurant.
Tuesday
Beach day at Longboat Key.
Wednesday
We went to the Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium on Longboat Key.
Thursday
Magnificent houses across the waterway.
The Selby Mansion.
In the conservatory.
Friday
There was a tropical rainstorm so we had lunch at the Anna Maria Oyster Bar and then came back to my friends house to watch Pride and Prejudice.
All in all it was a nice week away...but there's nothing like coming back home.

Sarasota has for a long time been one of my favorite places and your photos remind me why.

I just realised I'd not commented on this post! I am very happy you were able to come and be here to visit Kiki! It was fun being a tourist in my own town with you! Hugs! xx
