First night

After we were settled in we joined Pete and Jerilynn and their friends eating at a place where the culinary students provide the menu. It was delicious! Served buffet style and for those among you who thought prices would be out of sight in Florida the buffet was a very reasonable $9.99 per person. The food was top-notch. http://www.hoteljac.com/ It is an old hotel that still offers rooms as a traditional hotel, but half the rooms are assigned to their students. Hotel Jacaranda has the southern ambience you would expect in an old southern hotel.

There were several paintings and they were all excellent. There is also an art gallery in the Hotel Jacaranda.
