Day 11 – Fort Lauderdale, FL – Thursday, February 13, 2020

Spent most of the day traveling and arrived in Fort Lauderdale later than we wanted so consequently we got the last spot which was an overflow site right next to the trash bins 😫. It had 50 amp hookup and water but no sewer. This place is called Paradise Island RV Resort but it’s more like Paradise Lost. And there is no island! RVs are packed in here like sardines with virtually no privacy. Even thought this place was listed in the Good Sam 2020 Guide Series book (RVers guide to campgrounds across the US) and they rated it fairly high, that didn’t seem to mean much. I’ve learned now to read the reviews ahead of time before reserving. The only excitement today was that the rubber seal broke under our toilet and sewage was leaking out. 😷 (Tyron flashbacks of what happened at then house several weeks ago before we left.) Managed to find a place to buy a new seal and installed this evening. In the process discovered that the black holding tank (where stuff from the toilet goes after flushing) is not completely flushing out when I drain at RV septic dump stations or sites that have sewer hookups. Something I’ll check in tomorrow while Tina gets her roots colored. No pics today, although I could have taken several of the toilet in pieces. One more evening here then we’re headed for our next stop at Key Largo in the Keys.
