I want my money back. The second time in a row Florida offers us below 20 degrees Celsius temperatures. We moved to Ft Myers Beach and tomorrow the temperature will go up to 20. Tonight it was 10 degrees. Luckily the locals suffer more than us so I can handle it. Everyone keeps telling that last week it was above 90 degrees Fahrenheit (above 30 degrees Celsius anyway). The rest of the week should be OK though.
Our hotel Lani Kai Beachfront Resort offers barbershop-like reception, sea views and kitchy-retroesque decoration.

I have to admit that this is what we are used to. The Orlando hotel was way above our league, at a very affordable price. But in Orlando you always get more with your money, especially in Ponderosa buffet. Well, we didn't eat at Ponderosa for a reason. Lani Kai doesn't have a wifi. So I will need to find a cafe with wifi in the morning.
Sorry to say, we've been eating fast food so far. Today we actually went to a restaurant and had a dinner and a couple of Margaritas, finally.
The Beached Whale at Ft Myers Beach had excellent fajitas and decent ribs. And Minna got a new favorite: Buffalo Shrimp. They were so good that she had to get some for dessert after having dinner at the
Surf Club the next evening... The Surf Club had very good burgers.
The ride to Ft Myers was interesting. We took the scenic route instead of the highway to Tampa. We drove through the orange groves and saw an endless stretch of trailer parks and taquerias. Trucks filled with oranges and grapefruit. Needless to say the mexicans do all the picking. Perhaps we could have gotten the best tacos of the southeast if we had stopped in Arcadia or Fort Meade.
Tomorrow some sun and drive to the Keys.
