Had to night-cruise the strip before leaving Miami Beach. With the top down it always seems like a movie scene with lights, camera, action!
Then a slow drive up classic US 1, sort of like a north-south Route 66 because this was winter's mother road in it's day. Had a fun visit with the same rellies who met us at Clearwater just last week! Another pleasant and scenic spot (Vero Beach) but the highlight was the return of the manatees. These 800-pound "sea cows" drifted lazily right under our footbridge with newborn, mom, and 2 males. Awesome nature.
Sights along the next stretch included this watering of a johnny-on-the-spot. Anybody want to offer a funny captions? (Ryan??)
After 10 days en route from Toronto we finally arrived at Daytona Beach. Fourth time at this condo building that has all we want and need at a low low price. Friendly staff, gym & pool, 450 sq. ft. on oceanside 8th floor. Plus a full moon and comet on the first night!
By day the view is north to the pier and south to forever. By night the same views become lights and colours from reds to blues.
So we're settled in for a month. Hot dogs on a truck and jello in a pan...
It's back to the ritual of cranking out long morning hikes on hardpack sand at sunrise. Girl and gulls. Welcome back!
