Re: Any suggestions on touring the Ringling Bros Museum in Sarasota?
Cabo,
The Ringling Museum and Circus Museum on the grounds are very worthwhile to visit. The Ringling has some of the art work of the European Masters. The Ca'd'Zan was the winter home of John and Mabel Ringling and it is exquisite. There is also a circus museum and an exhibit of a private collector of circus memorbilia and miniatures. Really, it could easily be a two day visit, but not less than a whole day. There is a designated "free" day for the museum but I don't remember which day it is. John Ringling left an instruction in his will that the museum should be free to the public one day a week. Here is the website:

St Armands Circle on Lido Key is also worth visiting for shopping and restaurants.
