Spring break in Ft Lauderdale

[philv]

For those recently returned or there now, how is spring break looking in Ft Lauderdale? We are flying in tomorrow for a cruise on Sunday. Staying at the Marriott on Hollywood Beach. The Hollywood Beach webcam shows lots of people, looks like lots of fun. Would love to hear from anybody there now or recently returned. 😎

I haven't seen any concerning articles in the local paper so that's a good thing.  We avoid the Fort Lauderdale Beach strip (route A1A) at all costs in March.  We made that mistake once - it looked like the beach was standing room only - and never again because beach goers have to cross A1A (a four lane road) to get to the beach and most visitors must come from places that don't have cross walks because they are crossing the street where ever they want and without even looking.  So other than the usual traffic, so far so good.

Got down to Hollywood Beach last night. It was pretty quiet on the Broadwalk around the Marriott but things were cooking down by Margaritaville. Lots of people out this morning to catch the sunrise. Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day.
