Join us as we recap our wonderful 37th anniversary getaway to Fort Myers, Florida! In this episode, we share tips for planning a Florida road trip—even when the weather’s a little unpredictable. Hear about our stay in the historic Altamonte neighborhood, just ¾ mile from downtown Fort Myers with walkable access to restaurants, breweries, speakeasies, and more.

We explore the Sanibel Causeway, visit Bowman Beach and charming Captiva, cruise through Fort Myers Beach and downtown Naples, and celebrate the 4th of July with $2 oysters and fireworks. Plus, hear about our coastal crawl up Florida’s Gulf Coast through Nokomis, Casey Key, Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Coquina Beach, and Holmes Beach.

If you’re planning a Fort Myers vacation, Gulf Coast beach trip, or Florida road trip itinerary—this episode is packed with helpful insights and local favorites !

We love travel planning, and have never considered using a travel agent. Why would we ? You can do everything online, right ? Well, we recently had a conversation with our good friend Chance Williams, a travel agent. He opened our eyes to the value of using a travel agent, and we learned that most travel agents don't charge you anything for their services. And they have access to information, bookings, discounts, etc. and special access only for travel agents with airlines, cruise lines, hotels, resorts, etc. In this episode we interview Chance and he explains how it all works, and how a travel agent can book a trip for you, or validate and improve on a trip you've already put together. Buckle your seatbelt and learn, just like we did !
