I started off my morning like I do every morning, reading the Bible. Since our luggage was already 49.5 pounds (and there's a 50 pound limit), I'm glad I didn't pack my real Bible but instead read it online at Biblegateway.com. Still, it's a bummer not to be able to highlight and comment, etc. After getting ready and dressing in our swimsuits underneath our clothes, we headed out. We stopped along the way to grab bagels and a local newspaper. Then we headed to Deerfield Beach, walked for a little and sat in the grass scoping the real estate, which we do in most towns that we travel to. Most of them were in the multi-millions, though.
Later we drove up the A1A to check out the different beach towns. Our favorite was Highland Park and Delray Beach. The little shops were quaint, and we ate lunch at "Boston's" on the beach, at their upper deck that overlooked the ocean. It was a gorgeous, but HOT day! After we were done, we walked on the beach some more, checked out a few more shops and then headed back to the hotel to change. Then we went to the King of Prussia type mall, checking out Nordstrom's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Crate 'n Barrel, Macy's, and some of the interior shops like Abercrombie and Express, etc. We didn't buy a thing, but we enjoyed looking in some stores that we don't have in Lancaster.
Later we called the boys to see how they were doing. When we got off the phone, we changed into our swimsuits and went down to the pool. After a refreshing dip and more reading, we headed out to West Palm Beach and ended our evening at the Banana Boat restaurant. If we ever went back to the east coast, we would definitely visit it again. It was right on the water where all the boats docked. We sat outside on the deck and there was live Jamaican music, reminding us of our honeymoon. The food was good, too, but it was the company that was excellent. We talked about life goals, things going on, dreams, etc. It was nice to have some time just to talk and reconnect. I have an incredible husband.
