Fort Myers Beach

Hi Guys I am sure you will notice a difference in the styles of writing - the "man" has given me a free hand on this one - subject to his editing tomorrow. Well we arrived Fort Myers Beach - just over 60 miles down the road from Oscar scherer (and the auto repairers forecourt)- but don't ask why it took us in excess of 4 hours to get on the pitch we had reserved (I will explain) - no we didn't have any problems with the Rig - we trundled along, stopped at a normal Wal-mart (as opposed to a Supercentre) for some provisions - and surprise surprise they had very little in that respect - plenty of other stuff tho - so we did things in style - we had lunch in their carpark (obviously concocted from stuff we had in)- we sure know how to have a good time, we arrived in the general vicinity of Fort Myers beach without a problem - but you try finding a campsite called Gulf Air - that does not have a sign out in that name - try "Sunburst" - yes pretty similar - but hey, use your imagination - you try riding up and down a very busy road three or four times doing U turns - wouldn't recommend it really - just call in to the local garage and ask - maybe for a telephone number or something, and maybe they will give you a "Credit Companies" number - but thank heavens for their customers - a very nice guy called Travis, told Tony he would run him up to the place to show him where it was and then bring him back - which he duly did. Tony walks up to me and says the good news is - we have found it!, we are booked in and handed me the "papers" - the bad news is some-one is on our pitch and the office is closed - what do you want to do! So we drove along to it - had a look around, met the local Forrest Gump (complete with tricycle) and chose an alternative spot - not a major problem as it turned out. We had a very pleasant evening complete with beer and BBQ, we have not been out today - just completed a few more daft little jobs around the place - whoops big mistake - quote " I have been an electrician, a carpenter, chef & teaboy" whilst I did the mundane stuff - like washing!! and laying around on the bench - tidying up and making dinner. The neighbours have been around and intoduced themselves, and suggested a visit to the area is not complete without an afternoon spent at the beach - so maybe that is our next venture!
