St. Petersburg

After the beach, we drove down to St. Petersburg. We checked out the Dali museum. Salvidor Dali is a famous painter known for such works as the melting clocks (The Persistance of Memory). He really liked Freud, so a lot of his stuff was an expression of Freudian concepts (ie really weird). Although some of his other work is really neat. At the pier, there was the obligatory pelican on the post. Here's a novelty you'll only find in the south, a Hurricane simulator. For $2, you too can see what it's like to be in a hurricane, minus the water and devistation. When in Rome, or, in this case, FL, I got the snow crab legs since they were under $20 for a dozen. Very tasty, but it takes a long time to get at a little meat. However, it's much better than the imitation crab (aka painted, processed fish).
