We just came back from Florida last night. We went to Cafe L'Europe(great restaurant) in Palm Beach. And there's Mark's at City Place.<BR>You can't beat the shopping on Worth Avenue.

I also just returned from Florida. For a not fancy but delicious breakfast try John G's in Lake Worth. It is also recommended on Fodors. Be prepared to wait in line, particularly on a weekend - while waiting they often come by with chocolate covered bananas, strawberries, etc. Delicious omelettes, french toast.

It'll be a two and a half to three hour drive just to the very beginning of the Keys (Key Largo)and you'll want to go farther than that. A day trip to Miami Beach might be wroth it if the weather is nice. Personally I'd settle for a day trip to Ft. Lauderdale with lunch or dinner at one of the good restaurants on Las Olas Blvd.

What's the current weather like there -- is it warm enough to go into a swimming pool? Or the ocean??

Heck, NO! It is currently freezing here!!
