We had a great day of shopping in central Florida. This morning we woke up and went to Mcdonalds to split our 4 dollars breakfast. We have 30 hours to go 90 miles to pick up Mark's sister from the Airport. Mark laughed when I asked if we had time for me to Blog before we left. We are on no schedule.
Later, Mark stops the jeep on the way to the beach to look at dirt. I'm not kidding black dirt that looks like compote that we use to make flowers grow. I was sitting in the jeep when I heard him say come look at this dirt. That is a sentence that I have never heard. Mark could have stayed there all day and explored. But, we are behind schedule and on someone's land so, we left.
I had no idea that there was so much agriculture in South Florida. We have seen rice fields and sugar cane, early corn, oranges and huge potato fields.
Finally made it to the beach area, with mansions, landscaped yards and fences and hedges to keep us out. We could not even see the ocean. Next, we went to a city park on the beach and paid 6 dollars to walk on the board walk and the beach. We are over 500 hundred miles from home and did not let that stop us from enjoying our day. But, it was time to go to work, after all , it was 10:00 a.m. We went shopping as we headed south. Found a lot of good stuff to sell..
We are now eating lunch in a Cuban cafe in an area where there are more signs in Spanish than English. We feel like we are in another country in our open air booth.
