February 15, 2009Today we drove out to Pensacola Beach over the long toll bridge. Pensacola Beach is actually on a barrier island. When we visited here five years ago we stayed at the National Seashore Park. We remembered that we had eaten at Crabs on the beach and decided to go there once again for lunch and to celebrate our anniversary. This is a picture of Bill, my best friend and traveling companion for the past 31 years.
The food was excellent and reasonably priced. We ate out on the patio and watched the waves. The beach was nearly empty today, which was surprising since this is a holiday weekend.
The water is clear turquoise and the sand is white and powdery. These beaches are much better than those of Southwest Florida.
My only complaint is that it is cool and damp here. It did not get above 65 degrees today. I think what I am going to miss most about Ft Myers is the very warm winters. 
Our lunch was delicious, though, making up for the cool weather.
