Yach-Master goes to Daytona (or a little trip report with some wrist shots)...

.....as my parents are visiting from the old country, I decided to take FRI off and take a little
'across the Florida weekend trip." We left FRI morning and started to head NE across the state
through old (and new) FL towns.
At first we stumbled upon thousands of bikers in Leesburg. Later we made a little detour and stopped
in a very 'modern old-fashioned' community called The Villages where Red Hat Society ladies took over town ;)
After a nice lunch we continued to old Florida town called Mount Dora that is famous by 'many' antique shops.
(the shops are not my cuppa tea, but a neat town nevertheless.) Of course I stumbled inside some of them
in hope to find some vintage watch gem - sorry no luck .... :D

Our trip later continued to Daytona and Daytona Beach. Interestingly - I live in FL for 18 years and Daytona
is only 3 hours away from me, but this was my first time visiting the famous Daytona Beach. (I have been to
Daytona to watch the evening NASCAR race once - but never made it to the beach. We experienced a beautiful
sunrise yesterday as you can see from the above pictures and overall it was great trip exploring my home state,
not to mention the enjoyment of my parents' company - since I do not get to see them too often.
