"@yankeefina87656 @wizardofFiDi I think this is more geared to the elderly and people who dont like snow. Florida is nice as a place to visit occasionally but does not offer premier cultural amenities that those four cities offer. Not even close. Also imo south Florida has the worst year round weather"
