April 14-21

We spent 5 nights in Fort Lauderdale, enjoyed bike rides, local restaurant's, and the never ending parade of mega yachts. We have become so jaded, we don't even look up at boats in the 65" range. We went for a dingy ride and up the canals and looked at more homes of the rich and famous. On the 19th we headed up the ICW to Boca Raton and stopped to see our ex neighbors from El Paso, TX.  They live in a townhome with a Marina out their back deck. We stayed on the boat but where only 50 feet to their place. We had a fantastic visit? Poor Cody, their place does not allow pets so 3 times a day we would sneak him into the car a take him off property to do his business. He really didn't mind.
On the 21 st we took off between thunderstorms and headed to Stuart (58 miles) . We passed  through Palm Beach went by the Jack Nicholas and Tiger Woods compounds on  Jupitor Island.  The wealth down here is like nothing we have ever seen. It's not that some have so much money, but the tens of thousands that have that kind of money!  Below are more pics.  I will probably post early next week as on Friday we will start our journey back across the state through Lake Okeechobee and to a Fort Myers.  We are head home in less than two weeks!
