Traveling along the ICW in Florida we saw some of the most unusual sites - Santa Claus lawn ornaments in the lawn. This just seemed so strange in a climate which does not get snow and where it is about 70 degrees currently.
We arrived in Daytona Beach – the home of SPEED – NASCAR SPEED. It was only appropriate that the boy’s got out their ‘wheels’ to tool around in. While the guys checked out the marine surplus store, the ladies began Christmas shopping along Beach Street. We went to the Farmer’s Market on Saturday and picked up some of the great Florida citrus fruit available.
They had a Holiday parade the other evening. It was my first evening parade and was interesting to see all the parade participants try to dress themselves in lights for the evening event. Baton twirlers had batons which glowed at the ends. Dogs had been dressed in outfits which included Christmas lights. Fire and police cars came down the parade route with there flashers going and floats were all decked out with lights.
