Florida, as viewed through a Foreigner’s eyes

Lattice patterned palm

birds make nests on
lampposts in the middle of a
busy street.
Red Squirrels climb on palm trees.
Old people. Just a lot of them. So cute and
endangering the driving
experience.
Plethora of sports cars.
Multiple
sports cars per each above mentioned cute and
dangerous old person.
Hair is always
done, usually highlighted.
Shirts
are optional.
Heels are mandatory,
especially in
airports.
Minimum
One dog per family.
Men wearing tanks is also
normal.
OCEAN. They have an ocean. (Midwest girl squeak)
White
sand abounds.
Russian grandmas are
the same, just a bit
more tan.
People smile
at strangers, always
greet one another.
Palm trees in yards.
Grass is thick and grows and grows…
Houses are stuccoed.
