Traffic

The traffic in Ft. Lauderdale is horrendous -- especially these past few weeks with spring breakers. We have learned (after this past Sunday when it took me 45 minutes to go about 2 miles!) that we should just never get in the car on Sundays - period. Sundays are especially crowded on the beach. And since the weather has been so perfect (80s, sunny, a little wind) it is even more packed. It's funny that we have been here so long that we have experienced a change in the city - more vacationers and "snow birders" on the beach and walking around, more people at restaurants, the supermarket, Starbucks. And traffic, traffic, traffic!
