well. come to naples my friends, if you want to see northerners who left a better place, know more than us, blah, blah, blah.
from november to easter we are inundated with "snowbirds" for whom the phrase "ugly american" must have been coined. they are the rudest, most arrogant, unhappy bunch of people i have ever had to deal with. they feel that they are entitled and that everyone should kow tow to them. i have had them actually cut in front of me in line-just bypass the line of people waiting to pay , walk up to the clerk and demand to be waited on. when one woman started creating a scene after charging past those of us waiting to pay,and then creating a scene when the clerk told her that we had been waiting, we locals told the clerk to wait on her-we would wait.
a month ago i was waiting in line at the grocery store and two women who were behind me, complaining about how the store did not stock a few items that they got "back home." then they proceeded to bash the beach parking, property taxes, restaurants, high cost of living in naples,etc. and how we locals need them in order to maintain the lifestyles we have . if you are so miserable, why don't you stay up north? believe me, we won't miss you!!
i am counting the days until easter when the great migration will begin again.
it can't come soon enough for me!!
