BradnDad2014
Leaving Tallahassee after breakfast, we headed for Jacksonville. About a 2.5 hour drive, our plan was to hit the coastal highway and work our way down to Miami. Brad assumed the usual position for the drive, and before he knew it, we were in Daytona Beach, south of Jacksonville.
Stopping across the road from a Golf Car dealer, we decided to have a wander through the lot.
Heading South a short while later, we tried in vein to have Gertrude take the scenic route.
Although somewhat unimpressed with Christine (our Camaro), maybe we are being spoilt, she does have one redeeming feature... "On Star". On Star is the onboard navigation system, operated by Humans... Press the blue light on the revision mirror and the car connects via phone to an operator on the system. Tell them where you would like to go and the directions are downloaded to your vehicle.
Unfortunately the scenic route would have taken another 6.5 hours of driving, so we decided to hit the highway again, arriving in Miami around 6.45pm. Somehow stuffing up our directions, we were on the road for about 10 hours...
Our apartment is part of a restored Art Deco hotel, originally built in the 40's. Clean and tidy, we settled in for a good nights sleep...
