Arlington Park

Arlington Park might not have many top sights, but Marie Selby Botanical Gardens and Marina Jack are two attractions nearby that you can check out.

Finally got around to trying out another coffee house on Florida's west coast. The Clever Cup in Sarasota did not disappoint. Very good latte with an extra shot and a tasty turkey and cheese sandwich in a toasted croissant. Good seating and local jewelry and art. Worth the stop and several nearby places looked interesting for later exploring.

Gulf Gate Estates

Pristine beaches and ample dining options are well-reviewed features of Gulf Gate Estates. Make a stop by top sights like Gulf Gate Golf Club while you're exploring the area.

We loved visiting The Donut Experiment on Anna Maria Island where you can create your own hot cake donut dipped in the icing of your choice and finished off with an amazing topping.

From left to right - TOP: coconut flaked chocolate glazed, Reese's Piece chocolate glazed, salted caramel BOTTOM: Oreo crumble chocolate glazed, Fruity Pebbles strawberry glazed, Reese's Puff peanut butter drizzle chocolate glazed.
