St. Petersburg, Florida - Part 7

We ate dinner at the Renaissance Vinoy Resort on the 4th of July. These photos are of the formal restaurant and some of the starters and mains that we ordered. I included a pic of our wine too. My step-dad chose most of the wonderful wines that we had in St. Pete, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. Yes, we were in all of those places in a short period of time! We also brought over a couple of fabulous wines from South Africa that we enjoyed with them in Atlanta.

St. Petersburg, Florida - Part 6

We spent the 4th of July at the Renaissance Vinoy Resort where my mom and step-dad are members. We first went in the morning to swim and eat a light lunch at the Alfresco Casual Dining area. They make a good burger and fries there. We went back for an elegant dinner at the formal restaurant and to watch St. Pete's fireworks from the Alfresco area. Unfortunately, the fireworks were cancelled that night as there was some wind and rain. Since I don't like my posts getting too long, I'll be sharing the dinner pics next week.

One wing of the hotel has some history about the Renaissance Vinoy Resort and Golf Club with photos and original pieces like dishes and silverware previously used before the renovation. There's also a small exhibit of Chihuly's glass art. I'll be sharing photos of the impressive Chihuly Collection in the near future.

St. Petersburg, Florida - Part 5

Driving through St. Petersburg's Central Arts District, we saw museums and murals. Above is the Museum of Fine Arts and below are the Imagine Museum, Chihuly Collection, and The Dali Museum. I'll be sharing photos from our visits to the Chihuly Collection and The Dali Museum later in the series, as we toured them on separate days.
