When we left the Heathcote, we headed toward Fort Pierce's marina to go to the Manatee Education Center. This is a great place for children to learn about manatee, but much was a repeat of what we had learned earlier. And there were no manatee to observe when we were there. This was our first bust of the trip.
Because we didn't spend much time at the Manatee Education Center, we had time to go by the Citrus Museum in Vero Beach. It's housed in the heritage center. There's a descriptive history of Citrus in Florida, particularly in the Indian River area, and vintage citrus crate labels that were fun to look through. The volunteer working shared a lot of history with us.
The weather clouded up so we headed back to the DVC resort where we made dinner and then relaxed until time to pack. We enjoyed being in one place for several days, but it's time to move on to Fort Lauderdale.
