Last Day on Anna Maria Island

Sunset on Anna Maria Island

Rod and Reel Restaurant

Friday September 17, 2010. Larry and Kevin walked down the beach to get breakfast. Debby and I have closed our restaurant for this year--no more cooking. Cleaning out refrigerator and cabinets to get ready to leave. Kathy and Denny will be the recipient of our left over groceries whether they want them or not! Ha! We packed most of our items in preparation for our flight tomorrow morning. Did a couple loads of laundry so we do not have to return home to laundry, which is a nice touch!

After working around the unit for awhile this morning we put on suits and headed to the pool. We layed around in the pool till about 11:30 and came up to unit and put pizza's in oven and made a salad for lunch. Larry and Kevin went for a ride this morning and came home in time to eat lunch with us.

Went back to pool after lunch and spent the rest of the afternoon. We got out about 4:00 and showered and met Kathy and Denny to go to the Rod and Reel Restaurant for dinner. We went to the Rod and Reel the first night we came into Anna Maria Island. It is on a pier out in the ocean and is an interesting place to eat as the ocean is all around the restaurant.

Came home and got back in time to see the sunset and it was beautiful over the ocean. We finished packing and cleaned up unit so we are ready to go in the morning . Our plane leaves Tampa tomorrow morning at 8:00 so will need to leave here at 5:00 to make our flight.
