Navigating Jacksonville


Look at those happy smiles on our faces. There is a good reason for all of these grins...
We walked at least six miles looking for this Tropical Smoothie!

Jake and I are both trying to stay fit and healthy so we wanted to get some smoothies with a protein added in for breakfast instead of eating a really greasy and fatty breakfast at a restaurant.

Well......

The concierge at the hotel told us it would be three blocks away in one direction. About a mile and a half later we stopped at another hotel and the guy told us it would be about half a mile in another direction and THEN about a mile and a half later some ladies on the sidewalk told us it was "a ways" up the road in a different direction.

We were so happy when we finally found this store! The smoothies were super yummy and they really helped cool us down on the Loooooooooooong walk back to our hotel.

One bright and shiny side of the story is that we didn't have to buy lunch on Saturday! It was nearly lunch time when we got to the restaurant and the protein additive helped hold us over until our early dinner reservation!
