A Brit in the Court of Cavallino Part 1

February 7, 2013 By pete

Sun sets on yet another great day at Palm Beach.

In January, VeloceToday correspondent Jonathan Sharp left the comforts of home in Great Britain to enjoy the warm temperatures and blue skies of Palm Beach. He reports about what he found at and on the way to Cavallino. His notebook begins with Wednesday through Friday below, and continues with Saturday and Sunday in a further article.

I certainly hastened my step after seeing and hearing that!
