Day 269 - Maxi and Mini Golf

Taking advantage of the fact that the weather was gorgeous, Kathryn and I decided to creep off early for a round of golf at a local club called Rosedale. We had been before and had fond memories, but the round was not so memorable this time: we were a two ball stuck behind a four of, as the starter referred to them, "holiday golfers"... Hmm....  After 8 holes I had a brainwave, we could miss out the next 2 holes and move on straight to the 11th, where we could see that there was an open tee. This proved a great idea and we completed our 16 holes in much better spirits.

In the afternoon, we had golf of a different kind. one of the standard things we do with visitors in Sarasota is to go to Smugglers' Cove. This comprises a pirate-themed 18 holes of mini golf together with an alligator feeding pen (baby alligators that is...).

As ever, the Lawrence family had a competitive game with Father just prevailing when Junior three putted the last...

In the evening, we headed off to Lido Key to see the last of the day's sun disappear over the horizon before going to have cocktails and then dinner in St.Armand's Circle: a great evening!
