Siesta Key Beach - Kim, our youngest daughter is visiting us before she went back to college study. So today we went to Siesta Key Beach which is an hour away from where we live.
the water is very cold, but nothing could stop me from looking for shells!

Alive Purple Urchin - I wasn't sure whether it would sting me or what kind of creature it was when I saw it floating in the middle of the ocean water. But I couldn't let it go as I haven't ever seen this kind of sea creature before!
It was alive, and I took bunch of pictures while one hand was holding it (am I having unbelievable stable hands for shooting?), don't worry about him, I throw it back to the water after I took enough pictures of him.
