 Thursday 8th October: touring.

 

    A lazy morning enjoying the pool and the wonderful sun and warmth. After a typical US lunch at a Wendys (Hamburger chain), which wasn't quite as I remember them years ago, we set off up the highway A1A from Delray Beach to the top of the Palm Beach peninsular (with Riviera Beach in the distance). The weather was fantastic glorious sun and 87 F temperatures. The route took us past some very upmarket mansions and spectacular beautifully clipped hedges. This was one of the rare occasions where the road was often only single track. One of the most interesting things about driving in Florida is that you never know where you are. Unlike in France where every tiny village has a name sign, there is nothing but road names in Florida.

 

We went right up to the tip of the Palm Beach peninsular (looking out towards Riviera Beach).
