FLORIDA 2023

DAY 1

My mother-in-law, Sheri, picked me up at 6am on a Saturday. We said our goodbyes to Sam and headed to Florida. We stopped several times for bathroom and food. It’s sunny 1 minute and rain the next. I think we arrived at her place around 3pm, so it took us 9 hours.

DAY 2

We went to Waffle house and had a lovely breakfast/lunch. Also went to Dunkin’ to get some coffee, a big must! After that we went to a plant store aka botanical store. Went to a BOOKSTOR, where I of course bought books!

DAY 3

Went to an italian restaurant, where we had pizza, it’s sooooooooo tasty. Took a walk around downtown and took some pictures of wall art.

DAY 4

Went to Daytona to a restaurant close to the beach, their table that we were sitting at, was sooooo sticky. Gross. The food was OK, nothing to brag about. After that Sheri drove me to the lighthouse, so I could take a picture of that, and then we went to the pier, but it was closed, since the hurricane. I also spilled coffee on my shirt.

DAY 5

We went to the Zoo, and it’s very disappointing. First of all, it’s so much space for people, but so little space for the animals in their cages. The rhino had green water, probably very hot, cause the sun was right there. Second of all, since it’s so god damn hot, some of the animals were somewhere else and the few ones that were left, well they were hot in the sun. Sheri got herself some ice cream and wow, that was a tall one.

DAY 6

We went shopping this day and therefor I got no pictures except for the lunch we had. Also walked around her neighbourhood and took some pictures.

DAY 7

"Let's drive on the beach! It's fun they say." 5min later, we stuck in the sand. Got help from 2 strangers to push the car. in 95F/35C. We finally got out of there.

Started the day with coffee of course and then we went to play Minigolf in 35C, that was very hot, sweaty and I would not recommend it. I won! We went a short trip to the bookstore and they had a cat!

Then we brought Sheri’s friend with us to a restaurant and had some lunch. That’s my flatbread pizza and of course, my dessert again!

We drove to the beach and what happened? We got stuck. In Florida it’s allowed on beaches to drive cars. Super weird.

DAY 8

It’s too hot this day, so we just went downtown to look in stores. I bought 2 t-shirts for Sam and I.

DAY 9

Last day! We went to church that was in a school, it’s def. not for me, but I’m glad I got to experience it. Went to lunch at this kool place and the food was great. We also went to a juice bar and I bought a juice with pineapple and avocado, I do not wanna drink pineapple ever again. It messes up my tongue.

I def. wanna go back. Hopefully in December, so we can celebrate Christmas too!
