Alligator Creek Trail in Venice – perfect for an afternoon walk

Alligator Creek Trail in Venice – perfect for an afternoon walk

This beautiful trail starting at Woodmere Park in Venice is a hidden gem. Enjoy the silence and solitude when walking along the creek surrounded by lush vegetation. I love the afternoon hours when the trail itself is getting shady and the colors intense.

Healthy Eating in Venice

Healthy Eating in Venice

When you look for a place to eat healthy and declicous, check Café Evergreen in Nokomis just North of Venice.

Their personal philosophy is to be a leader in healthy foods and drinks that are fresh, great tasting and unique. They take things that people like and give them a healthier option while all the time maintaining quality and great taste… some examples – people love French fries, their healthy version is baked sweet potato fries.

Their food at the café is more vibrant and colorful because it is FRESH! When you use fresh ingredients there is always a taste difference!
