I remember my first trip to Florida in January of 1969. We were visiting my aunt in Winterhaven. It was cold and wet. Brrr!!! She told us we would have to go down to Miami to get warm so we went there, ended up on a short cruise to the Bahamas where we soaked up warmth and sunshine. I'd previously just thought of all of Florida as a tropical winter paradise which it is not.
