11 Extremely Weird Things Only People From Florida Do
Around here, we think Florida is pretty cool. There’s plenty of sunshine, water and wildlife to enjoy–and we wouldn’t choose to live anywhere else. Life here is a little different than anywhere else in the country, and there are a few things we do that would baffle people living in other states. We like to celebrate our state and everything that makes it unique, so here are a few weird things only Floridians do:
Just make sure to choose an appropriate fall or winter shade for your toes.
Sometimes people also give them as gifts when someone hits middle age, as you can see here.
Decking the palms is just as much a Christmas tradition as decking the halls.
In the small Northwestern Florida town of Apalachicola, at least.
(Though that might not happen this year).
Most kids here grow up surrounded by great climbing trees.
(Trust me, it's weird to some people.)
Or both, as you can see here in the Gasparilla Pirate Festival.
Key lime pie dipped in chocolate, Key lime cookies, Key lime ice cream, Key lime candies, Key lime salsa, Key lime jelly, Key lime hot sauce, and pretty much anything else.
You can see them on the highway or at Dinosaur World in Plant City.
It's the price you pay to live in paradise.
Of course, they’re not really weird to us, but what are some other things we do differently in Florida? Please share them with us in the comments below!
