Minnesota to Miami

Naples, FL

As a family, we recently visited Naples, Florida. Hallelujah for the breath-taking views of God's magnificent creation! It was a two day trip, with a stay over in the Inn of Naples (highly recommend). The amount of time in the car (about two hours from where we are in Miami) is just right for a good nap for the kids and just right for a good conversation between me and my hubby. We enjoyed the beach and the pier and food at 5th Ave Coffee Co. & 6th Street Diner (highly recommend).

As a native Minnesotan and now as a Floridian, I often have to remind myself of all that is within a few hours drive (that many people fly all over the world to come and see) - the gulf side of Florida, the Keys, the beaches lining the Atlantic Ocean, many cities/towns, and much more. What I often have to do is correlate a drive to Duluth, Minnesota (highly recommend - Lake Superior is much like visiting the ocean - without the salt water and sand and shells) with any of the potential drives in Florida.
