Florida 2025
DAY 5

Little Forrest
Naples to Bonito Springs
16/03/2025
Last night after we had eaten we went back into the centre of Naples to see how the other half live. Every business parking space seemed to have been turned into Valet Parking and you have never seen so many Bentleys in your life. One valet parker was moving about a beautiful green Lamborghini, a Porsche and a Ferrari, and people just go off and leave them to some young chap!
The queues outside certain resultants were huge but nobody seemed to mind. There were obviously some favourites.
We turned off Fifth Avenue (Main Street), drove about 50 yards and parked in a free car park. We had parked in the same road earlier in the day just as easily.
We walked the main street and did lots of people watching. It is fascinating watching how the rich live.
Today we went to the Mall, Macy’s etc. Good fun and cool!
This afternoon we tried to find a beach but it is just so difficult to find a gap between the apartment buildings. Where there is a gap you have to pay for parking on your phone and it does not allow ‘foreigners’ to do that. So just a bit of cruising and then off up the coast to Boniton Springs.
A lovely Thai meal and early to bed. Off to Corkscrew Swamp tomorrow.
The picture is a little forrest created by the flower arranging club we saw yesterday. I actually took no photographs today!
