I went for lunch and a nice walk after flying in to see family near Sarasota, right across the street from the airport .
Very beautiful spot and the tiny circus display took 50 years to make! Amazing! The mansion is gorgeous
Students get in to the museum for free with a valid student id for SCF, USF, New College and Ringling
Definitely do the docent tour of the house! Worth every penny!
Get there early! Cooler weather temps & very few right-when-it-opens visitors.
Walk around and see if you can spot all the Banyan trees
Bring a bottle of water
