Field Trip to Downtown Fort Myers...

I had a different experience downtown because I went with Professor Morris' class. Professor Morris had a lot of fun historical facts for us and I learned a lot about Fort Myers that I never would have learned. For example, apparently Fort Myers was the place to be in the 1920's. The Pleasure Pier was the hottest place in town!

I really liked the arts center. Out front are two GIANT candles. One tells a story in Seminole, and the other says a lot of words in Latin, I think. Anyway, at night, the lights reflect and the words are displayed on the building. I would LOVE to see that.

Another cool thing we saw was the Mural. I thought it was so cool how the artist did that, and how detailed it came out. I also thought it was creative how he combined history into one mural.

Pics to be posted....
