Bahamas Splash!
Our first cruise in January 2009 was so much fun that we decided to do it again. We had a great three day cruise out of Port Canaveral, Fl.. to Nassau in the Bahamas. Despite record cold in Florida, a hot time was had by all aboard the Carnival Sensation. Thanks to all our friends who joined us. John Frinzi and I had three shows, including one in Nassau at the wild Senior Frogs on the waterfront. The weather in Nassau was fantastic. I wish we could have brought it back in our suitcases. When we got off the Sensation in Port Canaveral, it was 30 degrees with a 30 mile an hour wind. There was ICE all over the parking lot. At least it was sunny. Well, sort of! Now I just need to figure out what we're doing NEXT year. Any suggestions?
Suncoast Serenades
Sunny Jim has been hosting visiting singer/songwriters for a few years with Suncoast Serenades, acoustic shows set in the historic Venice Train Depot.

New Venues
Sunny Jim’s got a new venue you should check out.
Little Wet Bar at Aqua Restaurant – On select Thursday nights Sunny Jim is entertaining at the Little Wet Bar at Aqua Restaurant on Blackburn Point Road, just one mile WEST of Tamiami Trail (Hwy 41). Show starts at 5pm, and Happy Hour specials are available from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. It truly is a little bar, and it's a great place to hear the music in an intimate setting. With the cool Florida fall and winter weather, we're moving to the outside breezeway, and it's been really nice! Check my schedule for dates
