The Sunshine State of Florida

Why is Florida called the sunshine state? Other than being located at the eastern tip of continental North America, Florida is being called as such because it is the state in the continent which has the fewest rainshowers in a year. Summer here is virtually extended from spring to late fall. This is an advantage to tourism because the atmosphere here mimics the tropical paradises of the Carribean and Phuket in the Far East.

Other than that, there are many fascinating tourism spots here in Florida. The one that I admire the most is of course the Seven-Mile Bridge. It was first prominently featured in a helicopter chase scene in the James Cameron epic thriller True Lies. The bridge is really seven miles long and there is no traffic congestion, you’ll have a relaxing ride of your life all the way from end to end.

And then there are the Florida Keys. The biggest one of course is Key West. Key West has all the resort hotels in the Carribean setting that you don’t wanna go out of the country anymore to experience how it feels good in such exotic locales as Bermuda and the Bahamas.
