Rare Lionesss Posted December 27, 2023 #111701 Share Posted December 27, 2023 So yesterday we traveled to our mall to do some after Christmas shopping. I specifically needed some picture frames and as always get a few candles. Well one thing led to another and ended up buying clothes for Miss Zoey. Soon the local media came up to us as well as many others and asked about our outing and took our picture. We watched as they traveled and talked to many others as well as take numerous photos. I joked to my husband. “Watch us be in the newspaper “. Yup. Front page in small town USA. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Tiki bar. Or both😁 Nice, secluded beach access Beach was not crowded this morning. Even found a lighthouse for OB And, Daryl was trying to wave down his largest inflatable friend. But he just flew on by, and over the lighthouse. Good thing, because we wouldn’t have room for that one in the pool. Very nice! Btw, loved your cruise report with Daryl. Every photo made me smile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare h20skibum Posted December 28, 2023 #111708 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Took the family out to see Christmas lights tonight. This guy has a pretty impressive display at his house.

Rental home, right? As much as I love cruising, camping, glizty casino hotels, this seems like perfection to me. Can you adopt me? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year we are at one in Pompano Beach. We have stayed in several, between here and Hollywood. Next year we are back to the same one we had last year, between Lauderdale by the Sea and Fort Lauderdale. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First stop for gas and last chance to grab a Tim Hortons coffee. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which reminds me to check in on the World Cruise thread. I stopped following it after a few days as it seemed like a "regular" Caribbean cruise. I figured I check back in once they start reaching some of the more exotic, unique destinations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stayed at a beachfront hotel aptly named The Beachcomber. I remember liking the area, quiet enough to relax but the "action" was just a short drive away. On my list of possible retirement areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are about 2.5 miles north of the Beachcomber, near the Hillsboro inlet. The beach is narrower up here, and it is a little more removed from the action. It is a nice, quiet area, and we will probably keep this house on our list of ones to come back to. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
