Day twenty, halfway and finally a long weekend

Halfway through the odyssey and time for a long awaited break. I think I mentioned earlier that I look as though I’ve been sleeping in my van. I needed a chance to wash my clothes and rest up a little.

My hosts during my extended stay in Delray Beach, Roxanne and her mother Iva, were incredible. Roxanne is Head of Math at a local high school and her bubbly mother, Iva, is a former primary school teacher. Roxanne and Iva were the perfect hosts. They recommended several places of interest during my stay, one being the wetlands reserve of Wakodahatchee and the other being a free outdoor concert in Fort Lauderdale. We enjoyed a wonderful concert in the sunshine and the walk through the wetlands reserve was fabulous.
