Tour day of the Miami/FtLauderdale area. Headed south and crossed onto Miami Beach and drove north. Not much to see of the beach, only the large hotels. Seems Trump has taken over, all the new ones are his. The old Fountainbleu is still going strong. As we got up to the Ft Lauderdale area there were more people and more sights of the beach and ocean. The winds were stong so the surf was realy high. As we neared Las Olas, on A1A I saw the
EL BO ROOM. This was the favorite meeting place when I visited during college spring break. The streets and beaches were always filled with college students. The EL BO ROOM is the only building left of those on the street. It has been spared demolition and now is on the candidate list for the National Historic Registery. GO FIGURE>
Had to have a brew and look at the old pictures on the wall. The rest of the street is no up scale shops and restuarants.
