Florida Grand Tour


After breakfast in Naples we drove the 4 blocks down to the beach. We took a walk along white sand that was like talcum powder and had a paddle in the Gulf of Mexico.

Naples is one of those places that's almost 'too' perfect - probably why Steven Spielburg has a home there.

From Naples we drove north to Fort Myers beach stopping at some lovely places on the way - including a 'dog beach' (dogs aren't allowed ok most beaches here).

Ft Myers Beach is a much more typical seaside resort with lovely beaches - but not much else.

As we wanted to get to Orlando by 6:00 we then picked up the pace a bit and took the interstate past Sarasota and on another 120 miles or so until we reached our destination - the Hilton Grand Vacations Club on International Drive.
