"Christmas Vacation" Day 5 - Clearwater Beach (New Years Eve!)

Today we all decided to "take it easy" and relax on the beach.  The weather in Orlando was perfect beach weather, 79 and sunny blue skies - however, as we drove towards Clearwater, Fl we noticed a blanket of fog over the beach area...we found a perfect lunch spot on the beach, got set up in our lounge chairs and soaked in the sun (I mean misty fog!) Oh Well, we made the best of it and while the girls didn't get the "sun tan" they had hoped for, we all had fun and made more great memories - and Duane and I learned of Olivia's huge fear of ...birds?  Seriously?!!  :)

Love the sand beneath our feet!!

football on the beach!

A "live" Starfish washed up onto the shore!!

...so much for our amazing sun tans!

Olivias new group of friends...or enemies?!

bye bye birdie!
