Nov 12, 2013 297km/8,570km Ft. Lauderdale – Miami – Ft. Lauderdale – Pelican Key

 Today, we left for the Florida Keys. After shopping in my favorite ‘Fresh Market’ South of Miami, we found out that the delivery of our solar panels from the UPS distribution center North of Ft. Lauderdale to the friendly water-maker guy J.T., who offered to store them for us until the boat arrives, would cost over $300. So, back we went, 1 ½ hours drive, to pick them up ourselves and store them with J.T. At least Chester got a bag of dog treats from the nice UPS lady.
Lost a lot of time with the solar panels and therefore had to pick what we got with regard to camping on Pelican Key. Again, we were pretty much the oddball out, but where we had been the smallest and (at least initially) dirtiest motorhome in T.Y. Park, we now were among the largest and clearly the cleanest motorhome in this campground. The fun of travelling, you never know what you get.
Early Christmas present: unpacking the solar panels

And that's how you transport solar panels
in a motorhome...
