We are sitting in a luxurious penthouse flat in Ft Lauderdale as we watch cruise liners sail out to sea - stunning views. On 16th floor.
Angela's children would love to visit as we have huge gardens with swimming pool plus barbecue area and tennis court with lights.
We met the owner who has 3 flats all worth a 1m or more and to say obsessive would be an understatement - she has left sticky labels - yellow all over - at least a 100 and we have to wear slippers - no great problem as marble floors and 81 today . Even given tips on using duster if dusty!
Your ma is enjoying US Today paper and reads out weather daily from UK and Ottawa - today 29 with snow. The main interest is crossword puzzle.
We drove to Naples on Sunday about 200 miles - fair drive to us but wimps as people we spoke to at Ramada had driven 1200-1500 miles one way =apparently flights are ridiculous price from smaller airports.
Naples oozed of money but very nice place to stay - the Ramada was essentially a motel with facilities in room plus table and chairs. It was half term so heaving.
The drive down Alligator alley was a disappointment as no alligators - the water areas were flooded so below surface . A toll road but only 2.50$ .
We use Publix and marvel at quality of goods and civility of staff - what a contrast. Fruit is in abundance so plums and peaches today. Plus salads .
I received an email today to say my tenant Jose the financial director for Ferrovial at Heathrow is leaving after 5 years . He has married and wife expecting so large house near Canterbury to enable maternal family to live in. Quite a drive.
We takes life quietly although walked nearly 3 miles to post office and sat in Italian cafe for coffee and i bought a cibbati loaf - just across road .
For Angela - we are at junction A1 with Oakland Blvd near beach. The water taxi starts near .
I think your addition was blocked so you have to sign in.
No news of Margaret .
We have done some shopping at mall for all - your Ma loves shopping for all ! Plus writing postcards - we are regulars at PO.
