Here's a fanciful version of the gorgeous town of Fernandina Beach, located on beautiful, beautiful Amelia Island.
I love its main street. In reality the buildings are made from brick and the colors are not quite this intense and saturated---but nearly so.
It's a place where a Floridian would vacation in Florida. Compared to the places you've heard of, it's quiet and very free of the typical "attractions" that make Central Central Florida so appealing to visitors and such hell for Floridians to live in. Instead, it has actual attractions. Anyone who doesn't know the difference has never visited my beautiful state.
Here's how the street actually looked. Is that not beautiful?
I fell in love with it the first time I went there. I walked up and down the street in a trance. I adored everything I saw or ate. I didn't want to leave.
Amelia Island, like Cedar Key, is a Florida secret we should probably keep. I won't say too much more. But I just had to pay humble tribute to this jewel of the Space Coast. Enough said....
