Jupiter FL to Fort Lauderdale FL; 109km 145m vertical climb

Today was our last full day on the road.  After 20km on a busy US1 we moved over to the A1A for the rest of the way to Fort Lauderdale and passed the ritziest part of the USA we have ever seen. The A1A goes along the oceanfront and this is prime real estate all the way to Miami.  The houses were chateaus, the grass was like putting greens and the curbside hedges were lush.  We were wondering where you find so many millionaires to buy these places.  We got into Fort Lauderdale at 6 pm and checked into the Relax Inn. The gaudy colour scheme appealed to me but the inside was not so good.
