t doesn't have gondolas or Old
World architecture. But it does
have more than 300 miles of
inland waterways and 42,000
registered boats, from yachts to
water taxis. So Fort Lauderdale is
proud to be dubbed the "Venice of
America."
The Intracoastal Waterway, the
beach, the yachts and cruise ships
all help to define this sunny Florida
city situated on the Atlantic coast
between Palm Beach and Miami.
Naturally, we began our explo-
ration of this Florida-style Venice
with a boat ride. We climbed
aboard the Carrie B, a replica of a
19th century Mississippi River pad-
dleboat, and settled down for a 45—
minute narrated tour. Along the
way, we saw waterfront estates,
boats of all sizes and shapes, and
landmarks such as the site of the
first army fort, built in 1838 and
named for its commander, Major
William Lauderdale.

Our route soon took us along the
Intracoastal Waterway towards PortH
Everglades, the second busiest cruise '
port in the world. We soon had
close-up views of three huge luxury
cruise ships all docked here.
Our cruise also gave us close-up
Views of more yachts than we'd ever
seen. In fact, a sign on the 17th
Street Causeway reads, "Welcome to
Fort Lauderdale, Yachting Capital
of the World."
Although boats and the water are
a major attraction, Fort Lauderdale
has other pleasures. We enjoyed
window shopping on Las Olas
Boulevard, with gas lights and
greenery, a chic boulevard with bou-
tiques, galleries and restaurants. We
strolled on the wide beach prome-
nade with its creative design of
curves representing waves.
The people parade was just as
eye-catching, with rollerbladers, jog-
gers, power walkers, cyclists, all
enjoying this smooth promenade
with its unobstructed view of white
sand and ocean waves.
