Wednesday 6 June 2007 - New Port Richey to Florida City

Said our goodbyes to John and Anna and, of course, Miss Kitty, before programming Tom to direct us to Florida City - about 350 miles. Tom told us that we would be traveling on a toll road and we accepted that...we didn't bargain on seven or eight toll stops ranging in cost from $1 to $2.50 at each!!! We will avoid those in future!

We enjoyed driving through the Everglades and along the spaghetti roads around Miami then on to Florida City.


Very heavy rain and thunder followed the photo of the storm brewing.

We were pretty tired of driving by the time we arrived. Checked in to a Super 8 motel for the night and went to Applebees Neighbourhood Bar and Restaurant for dinner. Ian had steak and I had ribs. Yum!
