One of the truly great things about the living room is you can sit inside in airconditioned comfort and see the amazing Gulf of Mexico, the horizon and the tropical sky. Of course, for an even better view or to dine alfresco, just step out onto the private balcony.
If you're on the balcony early, you'll be in time to see one of several flocks of pelicans close up, as they fly by on their way out for the day. If you're on the balcony around lunch time keep your eyes on the water, It's a thrill to see dolphins playing in the shallow water close to the shore almost daily and some people have even spotted a manatee or two during the cooler times of the year. Sunset on the balcony is usually a magical time as the tropical sky becomes lit with amazing shades of yellow, orange, pink and violet just before the sun dips below the horizon. Even then, the balcony is a most special place to be because what appears to be a million twinkling lights take center stage above along with an awesome moon that will be reflecting off the mysterious Gulf waters below.
