Jupiter, Fl

After we left the Everglades we stopped at a fresh vegetable market and got a box full of beautiful fruits and vegetables before heading to Miami. We spent a couple of hours exploring the art deco area of South Beach. They were having a food and wine festival but were sold out, so we left the crowds and headed north. We can't show all the photos we took! Some are censored.
Friday afternoon in February is not the best time to look for a campground in coastal southern Florida. We checked several in the area of Jupiter but all seemed to be full. Even the Wal-mart had no overnight parking signs posted as one would expect. So we chose a quiet spot beside a pond complete with ducks at the Blue H. Then it was off to tour the area. We drove along Jupiter Beach and stopped to watch people with their wind surfers. We located the Square Grouper Tiki Bar, also known as Castaways, famous for Jimmy Buffett and Alan Jackson's "It's Five O'clock Somewhere" duet. After a short visit there we went to the Food Shack and had a delicious dinner to end a long day. We took a couple more photos.
