There's nothing like a Vacation in St Petersburg

/DoubleTree Beach Resort by Hilton Hotel Tampa Bay - North Redington Beach You always hear about Daytona, but the best kept secret is North Redington Beach on Florida's west coast. When you wake up in the morning you can hear the waves crashing the shores out of your window before you even look to see it. The seagulls, Sandpipers, and Pelicans are already on the beach flocking about. You step out on the balcony and feel the peace and serenity. All the worlds problems are miles away.

You head down run out the back door straight to the beach for a morning walk. The walks are like therapy but best part are the sunsets. When the sun goes down over the ocean, everyone on the beach stops what their doing and watch. Everyone is on the same page at that moment. Don't take my word it. You have to see it for yourself.
