“Highly Recommended”

…. from every source telling us what not to miss in FL.

We started on the left, by the large municipal marina close to the Bridge of Lions.

Nights 2+3 were over on the right side of this map (above).

Great staff + customer service.

The annual “Nights of Lights” festival was in full swing (Dec).

The whole town was lit up!

But not only the town:

Many of the boats were too!

.

There were long lines at the local hot spots.

So, we decided to “settle” on a hotel’s restaurant.

Guess what!

We were VERY pleasantly surprised. Aviles was great.

This place had fabulous dishes. The scallops on the appetizers menu are themselves worth the trip!
