Random stuff I never posted... Part 1:

On "National Museum Day" we visited the Ringling Museum of Art, Circus Museum and Ca d'Zan (John & Mabel Ringling's mansion).  It was pretty awesome (and even better that we could go for free)! 

 
  Ringling was kind of obsessed with everything European, so he modeled his home after a Venetian palace and brought European art over for the museum.

 

The grounds were amazing... my camera was running out of batteries, so I didn't get a lot of pictures, but I did manage to snap a few of the Banyon Trees...




The house is literally right on the water!  There was a wedding on the patio while we were there...


Here we are at the Circus Museum :)
