Foggy downtown St. PetersburgThere is laundry to be done!We had dinner with our friend Lou Kneeshaw at Juno and the Peacock – incredible sea scallops and key lime tart to top it off!This is the elegant wood and plaster staircase in the Museum of the American Arts and Crafts Movement.

Another highly recommended stop!Bronze sculpture with inlays, Museum of the American Arts and Crafts Movement. A beautiful conch belt by artist Justin Benally, a talented Navajo jeweler. Check out this amazing website!Our last stop – The Dali Museum! Not to be missed.The beautiful atrium in the Dali Museum. Still Life from Dali’s earlier works.The Bather, a pre-surrealist piece influenced by Miro.The Dali 360 Dome, home of an immersive exhibit showcasing Salvador Dali history and art. He was quite charismatic and talented.
We’ve had a lovely layover in St. Petersburg, Florida! The weather could not have been more perfect – it’s been a lovely respite after a frigid couple of weeks in Apalachicola. We were able to cycle easily and visited numerous eateries and museums downtown. We plan to depart for Sarasota in the morning with the goal of arriving in Fort Myers in early March. But first, fossilized sharks teeth and seashells await! Until next time – sweet dreams!
Kathy and I have previously visited both the Arts and Crafts Museum, and the Dali Museum. Both were excellent choices on your part! Glad you are getting the opportunity to explore the cities you anchor in!
