Default Ft. Lauderdale?

Anyone have reccomendations on stuff to do during the week there? Husband has to go for training in a couple weeks and I am tagging along.

It doesn't look like the most exciting city ever, but it's an excuse to get out of town for a few days.

I don't know about Ft Lauderdale, but I'm in Fort Walton Beach right now for work. I can tell you that this place is awesome. That probably doesn't help you, but I don't really care because I've been drinking on the beach all day.

I don't know what you like to do, but.....

As for Fort Lauderdale, you can spend one day on the beach and shopping/eating/drinking at Beach Place.

You can also go shopping out at Sawgrass Mills. There's also lots of little shops and restaurants on Las Olas.

You can check out the Bonnet House - historical museum and gardens.

There's Butterfly World in Coconut Creek.

Best bet would be to try and reach out to Kel and Leon or some of the other SoFL peeps.
