We are thoroughly enjoying our month's stay at the Sun 'n Fun RV Park in Sarasota, FL. It is rated the #1 mega RV Park for 2007-2008. We can see why! It is a huge resort-like park, with as many permanent residents in small modular units as there are RVers. And many of the RVers are long-term. We're "short term" and maybe once-in-a-lifetime whereas many here stay for months at a time and return every year. There's plenty of open space, lakes, tropical vegetation as well as pine trees and palm trees. We're riding our bikes everywhere, since we don't have a golf cart, like many who stay here.
There are activities day and night -- we're drawn to the pool and hot tub almost every day. So many things we've only begun to sample: ping pong, tennis, (we even bought new tennis rackets, since our Rummage Sale variety were a bit out-dated), shuffle board, lawn bowling, beach volleyball, bocci ball, exercise room, woodworking shop, stained glass workshop, horseshoes, miniature golf (but plenty of golf courses nearby if we played golf!), plus daily scheduled crafts, cards, music, dance, ... it goes on and on. There's a restaurant and bar at the pool with reasonably-priced food, so we wouldn't even have to cook, if we didn't want to! Every evening there are special events: wine and cheese tasting, karoke, bingo, live music/dance... So why wouldn't we want to be full-timers? We could get used to this!
There are beautiful white sandy beaches nearby -- we're planning a picnic at the beach today!
We finally connected with John's grandson, Devin, who lives and goes to school in Orlando. We may be able to spend Christmas with him.
