Another of the many ways to see the city. A popular tourist vehicle that can show you around town, give you a little history, and not get lost or have to ask for directions. We locals are very grateful for that.

WHERE'S THE OCEAN?

I like traveling on the bus (tour or regular public) when I visit a new city. It's a great way to get acquainted with an area. Glad it pleases the natives, too.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping for a few upsets this weekend also. Taking a tourist bus is a good idea, I have done it before then went back later to visit sites that caught me eye.
ReplyDeleteYe old tourist trolley. Yes a blessing. You are twisted aren't you. MB
ReplyDeleteHey! Wait for me! I want a tour of Ft. Lauderdale, too!
ReplyDeleteDo people actually ride that thing? Where IS the ocean?
ReplyDeleteIt's always fun, and kind of surprising, to run into tourists from other states or countries wandering about...and sometimes a little lost. I guess it helps us to see how we look when we travel and don't have a clue where we are.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying you don't like to help people? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI probably would not get on this contraption, but then again I do know something of Ft Lauderdale and probably would not get lost.
I am going to be in Deerfield Beach in a few weeks for a quick visit ... I think I need to make it to Max's on the Beach, one of my fav Ft Lauderdale eateries ...
ReplyDeleteHello MR. B, you are right, this kind of vehicles give a great service to cities and tourism. We have a similar replicas of old trolleys for minitours at the Historic Centre. Great post and thanks for remind me that a I need a ride in one of these for another point of view of my own city. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteI like the colors (it's almost garnet and gold)! We have a trolley like that up here too.
ReplyDeleteThe 'bus' looks really cool!
ReplyDeleteI love the windows on this bus. How unique
ReplyDeleteWow! Ft. L is a big place. I never imagined there would be sky scrapers.
ReplyDeleteYou're still trying to get reoriented, aren't you?
ReplyDeleteLol! We have a little train that I'll be showing shortly!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think every local should take the tourist bus just to see the city through new eyes.
ReplyDeleteThe arched windows. Very nice on the eye.
ReplyDeleteThat's the best you can hope about tourist...
ReplyDeleteCute! I'd like to ride on this. We have a little train here who takes people around certain parks in the summer.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to see a city for the first ti,e. I like getting an overview and then seeing the details.
ReplyDeleteI once lived in a place where people were constantly asking for directions so know how frustrating that can be. Where I live now it's impossible to get lost...well, almost.
It's pretty--I've never taken one. I'm the one wandering around on foot asking which was to the ocean.
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit your city!
ReplyDeleteLéia :)
