One of the most exciting times on Marco Island is the arrival of our seasonal guests. Each year the locals look forward to old friends coming back and the smiles on the faces of first time visitors.
You might be surprised at what many consider to be one of the first signs of their arrival. It's the big semi trailers which deliver cars. That's right car carriers. First the cars get shipped down and then the people follow... It's funny to see a big semi trailer truck stopped on Collier Blvd. unloading car after car.
One of the "hot" discussion topics this year is that many of our seasonal guests are coming down sooner. Most of the folks arrived in January last year. October seems to be the timing a large number of people have selected this year. It would appear the financial crisis and recession delayed the arrival of many last year. This season seems to have more of traditional start. It's great people are arriving sooner because October is one of the nicest months to enjoy the weather here on Marco Island.
It's good to see the smiling faces and those semi trucks again! Welcome back everyone...Labels: Arrivals, Buzz, Marco Island, vacation, Visitors
