We arrived at our next stopover with some time on our hands so on our hosts’s recommendation off we went on a tour around Lake Dora. First stop was Tavares, the Seaplane Capital of Florida. This resort area was styled after Key West and had a happening pub scene with lots of live music, big chairs & big beers! Next around the lake was Eustis at the Wolf Branch Brewery. A much sleepier little town where we simply drank a flight with the locals. Our final stop was in Mount Dora and oh what a a stop it was. All parking lots were jammed and we just by chance ended up in the Palm Island Park lot where we encountered an amazing boardwalk experience and fantastic sunset views. Seriously, how does it get better than this?

Our bedtime snack was the Cheesecake Factory desserts of Key Lime Pie, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Oreo. Another list item checked off!
