We drove to Miami (actually Coral Gables) on Saturday. There we got to meet up with Tim, Breann and Caden. It was fun to see how much Caden has grown.
We went to Miami Beach on Sunday morning. Caden got to stand in the sand but didn't like it when the chilly wave suddenly covered his feet.
Sunday afternoon we attended the wedding of Bre's brother, Beau to Andrea. The ceremony was on Key Biscayne. By that time Caden was acclimated to the beach. He loved sitting in the sand and digging through it with hands and feet. Later, Tim & Bre walked him down to the waters edge but I don't think he got wet. Walt got some great photos but we forgot to bring the cable to load them to the laptop. I'll post them later.
We were able to be together until we went our separate ways on Monday. They went on a cruise and will return to Miami on Friday morning. They will fly home later that day.
We started up the eastern coast with plans to see some sights but concentrate on visiting friends. We were able to visit former neighbors on Monday & Tuesday in Juno Beach. Tuesday we went a few miles up the road and visited the sister of a former neighbor. We had great visits with everyone.
We took the scenic route from Jupiter to Okeechobee to Sebring. We enjoyed the countryside and all the lakes we saw along the way.
We arrived in Winter Haven last night. We called friends from last summer's "Tracks to Adventure" tour. We made arrangements to spend Wednesday with them.
Leon & Janet gave us a great tour of the area today. We enjoyed the tour and visiting their new home. They will meet us later tonight for dinner at Carrabba's. We're looking forward to ordering Prince Edward Island mussels -- we all agreed that the mussel farm in Prince Edward Island was one of the highlights of our trip last summer.
Tomorrow we will head toward Tampa. We plan to be back in Bonita Springs by Sunday.
Yes, I realize it is only a few hundred miles but we've gotten good at taking our time!
