We're in Fort Lauderdale. We got here in 4.5 hours after driving cross country. We got to see sugar cane and citrus! Lots of both! We didn't get to see a bear, but we saw lots of sand hill cranes, cattle and horses. We stopped at Wendy's in Clewiston to eat lunch. Wendy's has a really good spicy chicken sandwich! Just thought I'd tell you!
When we got to Jami's, Bryan & Erin were heading out to the beach, Kelly had a soccer game and we had to go to our resort to check in. After a short nap, we went back over just as Jami & Tom got back from the game. Bryan & Erin took off to Nick's to have dinner (my recommendation) and the rest of us ate leftovers! We weren't very hungry because we had stopped at Razzleberry's for an ice cream before going to Jami's. You should see the beach area at Atlantic and Briny. It is really built up...all the shops have new facades. There's a huge parking lot and lots of palm trees! The beach area has been cleaned up and a huge playground and workout area have been added, as well as having the Pier opened again. There's a new restaurant about to open next door to Razzleberry's and when the electric crews return from the NY area, there will be lights all over the area! Wow!
We're told that A1A down toward Ft Lauderdale is closed because of the high tides and most of the beaches have been washed away. I'll try to get some pix to share of that area. We can compare the beach to last year's pictures. I can't imagine!
More later...
