Fred Marquis Pinellas Trail

Dunedin, Florida - I decided to walk northwards along the Pinellas trail and started walking around 10am.   The trail is just behind the Holiday Inn Express Dunedin and a bicycle rental shop next to it.

The Fred Marquis Pinellas Trail is a 34 mile (55 km) linear park and recreation trail currently extending from St. Petersburg to Tarpon Springs and is a multi-use trail everyone can enjoy. The Trail was created along an abandoned railroad corridor.

The weather was around 27 celcius and humid but the trees lining the trail gave me shade from the direct sunlight.   Not many joggers but numerous cyclist.

By the time I reached the junction of Causeway Boulevard, I have walked close to 6km.  The skies started to turn dark.  So, I decided to head into Dunkin Donuts to get Wifi connection and call for Uber to head back to Hotel.  Fortunately under shelter and having a cold drink, it was a heavy downpour.
