The Florida Necklace

This is the end of this journal. We have been in Florida for 2 months, our holiday this time has been very special , We had a lovely month with Carol and Ron, when we watched the Shuttle take off, we have met so many lovely people and saw some fabulous wild life. We swum in the Atlantic and in the Gulf. In November we immersed ourselves into the culture of Florida, spending a lot of time at festivals, meeting people and making new friends.

The route map of our journey is like a thread that has been weaved through Florida. As we have moved from place to place we have discovered little gems, each one a different shape, colour or texture, maybe a person, a place, a sound. But each one special. Each jewel has been threaded onto journey. We have reached the end of this trip and can look back and see what has become a necklace of precious experiences which will remain with us as we make our long journey home

We are of course on a tour of the whole of the USA, however, we have made lots of lovely friends in Florida, so we are going to stay in Florida for our next break. There is another Shuttle launch, a Hog Roast at the Soggy Bottom Club, another meeting of the WSWFBA, acouple of Bluegrass Festivals and Connie has invited us to her birthday party, and we still haven’t seen the panhandle of Florida yet.

Thank you to all who have patiently read of our travels, we hope that you will join us again on our next adventure.
