Embarking on a journey to Fort Lauderdale, our adventure began with a serene stay at the Miami Beach Ocean View Hotel. We reached late to hotel and when we opened our eyes, it was a pleasant welcome by morning sunrays. The first day was a delightful blend of cultures, starting with the vibrant Wynwood Walls neighborhood, where the gelato’s authenticity transported me straight to Italy. Dinner was an elegant affair at a chic restaurant, setting the tone for the days ahead.
The second day greeted us with a hearty breakfast at South Beach, followed by an exhilarating bike ride along the Hollywood Beach Boardwalk with Jai. The thrill of surfing was complemented by the taste of fresh fish tacos and the unique Shark Tank drink. Jai really enjoyed surfing and tacos. As the day waned, Häagen-Dazs ice cream for me and frozen yogurt for Jai were the perfect sweet treats before an evening spent basking in the ocean’s embrace.
On the third day, We savored Einstein Miami bagel, a perfect start before exploring the historic Cape Florida Lighthouse and the natural beauty of Baggs State Park Cape Florida. We visited Biscayne National Park which is the only national park in USA 95% underwater. The underwater marvels at John Pennekamp State Park were revealed during an unforgettable snorkeling session. This is the only underwater park in USA. The day concluded with exquisite sushi and a quick ice cream stop, a testament to the city’s culinary diversity.
The fourth day dawned at a picturesque Florida Keys beach resort. After indulging in a local breakfast, We journeyed to Key West, marveling at the Seven Mile Bridge. Parasailing offered a breathtaking view of a playful dolphin family. The southernmost point of the USA was a milestone, followed by the lively streets of downtown Key West and the enchanting Fort Zachary, where nature’s beauty was on full display. The day ended with a warm dip in the swimming pool, Thai cuisine, and sushi, all while witnessing the traditional sunset celebration.
On the fifth and final day, I awoke early to witness the sunrise over the ocean, a tranquil moment with a cup of tea in hand. After a refreshing swim and a bagel, We departed with a heavy heart, cherishing the local shopping experience and a beach visit that offered a rare glimpse of a beautiful white fish. The journey to Fort Lauderdale was punctuated with stops to absorb the Florida Keys’ splendor, culminating in a delightful evening at Riverwalk and sweet souvenirs from an exotic Italian bakery in downtown Fort Lauderdale.
This trip to Florida Keys and its surrounding wonders was not just a vacation; it was a journey through diverse landscapes, cultures, and flavors, leaving us with memories that will last a lifetime.
