Today, we woke up in Florida. We’ve been here many times. In fact, this is the first time share we bought on Marco Island more than 25 years ago. We love it at Eagle’s Nest but don’t get here very often because we trade for other destinations. After complimentary coffee and donuts accompanied by the obligatory pitch on things to do in and around the resort, we used the rest of the day to get unpacked, find some groceries and locate a favorite Pizza Buffet called CiCi’s. We first ate at a CiCI’s in Albuquerque, NM in 2006 while we were at the Balloon Fiesta. It’s inexpensive ( about $5.00 for all you can eat ) and they have some crazy pizzas to choose from. The one they advertise is macaroni and cheese pizza which is pretty good but today Carl had a ham and egg pizza and I had a Taco Salad pizza. I haven’t seen the peanut butter and jelly pizza we found out about on the food network yet, but it’s only a matter of time. ( This is really yummy, BTW )This just proves that if you can think it they can make it. Later, we went for a walk on the beach before sunset. The sun is strong here even at 6:00 in the evening. We could tell by the incoming clouds that the sunset would be less than spectacular and we were right. The sun went down but there wasn’t any show with the event. I had to point my lens elsewhere. A hot bath and a light meal of baked chicken with fresh asparagus and I’m in heaven. It’s just possible we’ll be going to the Naples Zoo and Botanical Gardens on Sunday, weather permitting.

Sunny Florida Is Also Hot!!!
