Alas I'm back

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing well on this interesting cool morning. It is rather cool, like a fall day today. I woke up this morning and felt for the first time that summer is soon over. What a sad thought, especially after coming back from the sunshine state or like many of you may think the orange state. Yep, that's what I thought at first too- Florida was the orange state, but think again.

Well, for those of you planning on taking a trip to Florida take it soon. It had to be the most relaxing vacation I have taken in years. From the tropical climate, to the serene neighborhoods, beautiful beaches and scrumptious food. You'll definitely not be a saturnine tourist sitting on the beach brooding all day. 

Now, for the moment you've been waiting for... Here's you're very own zagat guide  for what to do when you're in Ft.Lauderdale, Florida. 

First, a must is to rent a car- once you get their buy snacks and head over to the Ft. Lauderdale beach. You feel like you're in the caribbean and it's so chill and not crowded at all. 

Secondly, make sure you take a ride up to Boca Raton- the beaches there are gorgeous as well and there are many parks for your viewing. Also, try to make it a point to drive down to Miami. If you're there dine at Sazon- an amazing family cuban restaurant! If you are interested in going to South beach  all the lounges and  dance clubs are. It's a very busy and crowded place where all the teeny boppers hang, but try to see it just once to ( maybe the daytime would be better). I also heard coconut grove is a very nice area to take a stroll and visit shops- it's the New York village of Miami. The Foutainbleau (a cool lounge and great place for shows) and the beach is a must to see as well!

Next, here's a list of restaurants that you can check out while you're in the area of Ft. Lauderdale. If you're interested in a salad buffet go to Sweet Tomato, for scrumptious crepes for breakfast go to La Bonne Crepe and Toojays. Let me just say that Toojays has French Toast that's out of this world. Take a walk down Las Olas Blvd. and stop by Mangoes for a bite to eat and some cool jazz. If you're in the mood for a quick dessert got to Kilwins for some great ice scream. 

There's so much more I have to fill you in about Florida, but I'll leave you hanging till next time.....
