Today the Biologist let the Marine sleep in until 7am! He sure has it good, doesn't he? A quick breakfast and off we went. The Biologist is originally from Fort Lauderdale so we absolutely had to visit the house she grew up in and the schools she went to. Fortunately one of her former schools, Plantation High, was located near the Plantation Botanical Gardens, which just happens to have a Wind Harp on the premises! Surely you didn't think the Biologist was dragging the Marine all over the State of Florida because she was feeling nostalgic? Puhlease. There was a wind harp waiting to be claimed people! Fortunately, there was enough wind that we were actually able to hear it. Very cool. Next we headed over to the beach to visit a Whispering Giant statue and then made our way down to Miami where we visited a beautiful old Monastery that had been relocated from Spain to the U.S. in the early 1900s. Visited a few more historic places then off we went to Scully's Tavern, another place that had been featured on one of the Marine's favorite shows "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives." After an interesting dining experience, we headed back to Fort Lauderdale for a good night's sleep before heading back home on Sunday.
