Hello viewers. Warm greetings from the Florida Turnpike.

This video is a little spontaneous.

I'm on the road from St. Petersburg to West Palm Beach

because I'm on a business trip.

I'm going to a conference in order to give a talk.

I'm driving on the mainline of the Florida Turnpike,

and I'm stopping for the moment at a service plaza.

I wanted to show you how a Florida Turnpike service plaza looks,

because they are different than the typical rest areas

that are located on American highways.

A typical rest area has toilets,

vending machines for drinks and snacks,

perhaps a picnic area.

In contrast, Florida Turnpike service plazas are full service.

You can fill up your tank.

There are fast food restaurants and snack shops.

You can buy souvenirs.

You can even buy a SunPass transponder.

It is more comparable to what one experiences in Germany.

So, a short video, but

I didn't want to let the opportunity escape us.

Let's go inside.

That's all for today.

As said already, a short video.

Wish me luck on my talk.

Cross your fingers for me.

Thanks for watching, and until next month.

Ciao!

In Episode 21, I talked about the different types of toll lanes,

but I still forgot one - the so-called Ticket Lane.

One finds this type of toll lane on the mainline of the Florida Turnpike

between West Palm Beach and Orlando.

I'll show you how a Ticket Lane works.

On the ticket is the toll table.

The names on the uppermost row are the exits or toll stations.

The column on the left side lists the axle numbers.

The rows show the tolls according to axle number and exit.

So for example. If you were driving a two-axle car

and you were driving to the end, to Lantana,

then your toll would be $10.60.

At the end of your distance, look for this sign in order to pay.

The lane has an attendant.

OK.That is all for today.

If you like this video,

then do me a favor

and click the thumbs up.

To all my viewers who are planning a trip to Florida,

I wish you a good journey!

Many thanks and until next month.

Splatoon - Marie's Solo Tide Goes Out | ROM/ENG LYRICS - Duration: 1:17.

Over the bay, an oddity in the usual hues.

(The evening cools.)

Strangers, friends, or enemies?

(They are coming, coming)

Faces old and new.

Things seem a different shade of

color from the gray and lonely day.

The world comes alive, the music begins to play.

And they dance and they sway to the rhythm of the waves on an ocean blue.

And they dance and they sway in mysterious new ways like nobody knew

And they laugh and they play, their hearts led astray from fear and doubt.

'Til the sun comes up and the tide goes out.
