We came down in late Nov 2012 to visit a friend who lives here plus (after a few days) head on down to visit The Mouse. We had been looking at Continuing Care Retirement Communities (due to DW's health issues) and visited Freedom Pointe. After our tour of FP, I asked DW what she thought and her response was "let's look at some houses". We did and fell in love with a Seabreeze in Fernandina. Didn't decide to buy until about 5 days later while at WDW - drove back up the next evening and signed the papers.
The big selling point for us was (a) lots of smiling, happy, active seniors and (b) lots of resources if health issues get worse. (and for the curious, most of the health issues resolved in the past 2 months!)
We came back over Christmas/ New Years for closing, furniture shopping, and deliveries. Now we are here for good. Place does grow on you fast!
