The holidays here in South Florida were warm and sunny and the beaches were a statement to that fact, wall to wall bodies soaking up the rays. We rode almost every day and put some miles on our scooters. We had our 625 mile revision just before the holidays and are happy to say that both Vespas are running great. No more squeaking!
We visited a park where the mangroves were so thick one could hardly see thru them. There was a wooden walkway just above the water so we walked along and took some interesting pics.
Of course scooters were not allowed on the boardwalks, but dogs were and we snapped one of this beauty.
There was a section of the park especially for dogs. In fact one guy was riding his bicycle on the boardwalk pulling his pooch in one of those covered wheeled carriers. It was funny to see. The dog was sitting up looking like a princess being carried on her portable throne. Too bad we did not get a photo of that, we were too busy laughing. Guess we have to go there again as I am sure pooch and courier are regulars.There are docks everywhere in our area and these pictures remind me of the song “Sitin on the Dock of a Bay” by Otis Redding.
Well all good holidays come to an end and Wednesday was "Back To Reality" Day. Hope you all had a nice holiday.

Hi Conchscooter, We have lots of parks in and around Ft.Laud. The one we went to that day and photographed was called Colohatchee Park and it is in Wilton Manors which is a city within our city. Here is a link to the park's website. http://www.wiltonmanors.com/index.asp?Type=B_BASIC&SEC={AC71B4AD-C3B5-410D-98F5-2BFE766DD2FD}
The website for Wilton Manors (wiltonmanors.com) says that they have 11 parks. We have visited a couple of them.
I swear your photos just soothe me. Do people actually live in such a beautiful place?
Those scooters look like they would be a blast to ride in your area.
Thanks for the pics.
Yes Sarch, Sometimes we have to pinch ourselves to make sure we are not dreaming. So glad you enjoy the images. We love sharing them. And we love to ride our scooters. They are truly a blast!
