Visiting The Pelicans (St. Petersburg)

After a trip to Cape Coral to Key West and we had to go back to Orlando. We packed up, took our car, which is patiently waiting for us in the parking lot a few days and hit the road. Since the path from Cape Coral to Orlando, Tampa goes through, we decided to stop in St. Petersburg, a city which I have already said in his blog in which I traveled in November last year, too, for one day. In St. Petersburg has a lovely pier where pelicans hang out.





However, before I continue the story of Peter, let me show you how to look "condo" is the question of the first post in this series. There is now such small houses, the fire is traveling between them. In America, everything everywhere is written, everything. Sign, the rate-limiting is not here as a black figure in a red circle, because there are about 30% of people have some abnormalities in the perception of colors. It will be written on the sign «Speed ​​limit 65", which translates as "speed limit 65 miles per hour." It even color-blind is clear. On the plate is the inscription: "When this thing is calling, calling rescuers!". Marina for local residents. From left to even see two masts of sailing yachts. I recall, I wrote that they were not popular, because it is very small, and the yacht should be keel. Of course, there is such a thing as centerboarders, a boat, in which the keel is removed, they are very common in the Caribbean. entrance to the city is decorated with stone, indicating its main attraction. not deceived. This is the entrance to the pier, we leave our car in the parking lot on the right and go on foot. In the parking lot is an automaton that accepts bank cards - no need to worry about little things. By the way, this machine withdraws its $ 2 with a delay of approximately one and a half months. We have long come to Moscow, suddenly the phone rings and the girl asks Moscow I. I ask, what's the problem. She told me: "Now in Florida someone is trying to cancel your card two bucks, it's suspicious, block the operation?". It turned out that it is for parking in St. Petersburg got two bucks. go over the bridge to the building and the pier itself, which passed a little bit at sea. Pillars marked the boundary of the port in the background of the airport control tower on the right.In the A / FD (Airport / Facility Directory), which is also called «green book» (Green Book) for its color, Marina mentioned: Unlit + / - 50 to occasionally + / - 100 boat masts in approach area of Rwy 18, Rwy 25 and Rwy 36.How much it can change a value, just a little crop the photo! In fact, just above the inscription "Food for the pelicans for sale" and not "Pelicans are sold." :) The usual routine at the pier. For the birds can come close, pelicans are very steep! landing configuration: full flaps (full flaps), gear down (landing gear), power idle (the idle). again look at the airport. I recall, it was made ​​the first scheduled commercial flight in aviation history. Birds are very fond of, however, forbid them to sit lanterns. How? Stick to them, "hedgehogs." In Switzerland, for example, such protection at all railway board. That we go back, look at the local public beach. There bathing I do not particularly want to. And this is another private marina. It affects the number of absolutely typical of U.S. high-rise buildings. again glance at the pier. We will continue your way up to Orlando. On registration at the hotel I thought the manager and said, «Welcome back». Nice. :) The next morning I went to the Apple store for the second iPad (again, standing in a queue) and then we went to Cape Canaveral. This is the next reporting.
