Trying to catch the sun rise from the room.
Sunday morning beach walk
Walked south
DoubleTree. No microwave in the room. No free breakfast. I had cold chicken and potato salad for dinner on Saturday. More potato salad for breakfast today.
Ordered a sub on line from Publix. Checked out, picked it up, on the way to Fort Desoto.
On the water at Soldiers Hole at 12:05

White pelicans across the channel
I paddled across, to Shell Key, for a closer look.
Spear fishing
Don Cesar reflection
This may have been the most white pelicans I have ever seen. Large flocks on both ends of Shell Key
I was thinking of paddling around Shell Key, but would have had to portage at the north end
Sunshine Skyway
Shell Key angler
Lunch stop, back on Mullet Key. My Publix sub was delicious. As I write 12 days later I recall it was turkey, swiss, spinach, tomato, spicy mustard, garlic pickles, and bacon.
Loon
Osprey
Did not land here
Landed here. 5:30. The cone was dry when I launched. Tide. To the Gulf Pier for sunset
Egmont Key Lighthouse
Guiding freighters in the channel
The clouds and water vapor made it look like the Gulf was on fire
Wish they were kayaking.
Leaving Fort DeSoto
Had to stop. Lowest I have seen. Two weeks later, I'm paying $2.09.
