Everybody Who Sees Delray Beach Florida Loves It

By Jony Mozen


The Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens is definitely a place to visit if one is going to Florida. The campus has two museum buildings as well as the Roji-en Japanese Gardens that also features many bonsai. They are located just west of the Delray Beach Florida, in the Palm Beach County. In the main building called the Cornell Cafe they give demonstrations which include tea ceremonies as well as classes and several times a year there are traditional Japanese festivals.

This park is named after a Japanese man who gave his farm to the County. He was the only member of the Yamato colony and remained there until after World War two. It was opened in nineteen seventy seven and the main museum was opened fourteen years later.

One is even able to visit Vino Van Gogh in Pineapple Grove where they offer step by step instructions on painting and all materials are part of the price. While one is painting each person will be offered either a beer or wine so make a trip and bring out the artist that has been hiding away all these years. This is a different way to spend a morning and is really fun and at the same time one will be able to make some new friends.

If one has young children visiting the Sandoway House Nature Centre is a good way to keep them occupied for a few hours. They have many native plants as well as live animals and have one of the larger collections of shells from all over the world. They do give environment education classes as well as various programs during the year.

There are many salons and spas around town and each one is unique. Needing to work out, there are many different disciplines to choose from ranging from the normal gym to Dance, Martial Arts and Pilates. There are also many massage therapists and chiropractors available if needed.

According to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report the Delray Medical Centre is the top employer with over one thousand five hundred working there. The second is the Publix with just under five hundred employees and the Gleneagles County Club has two hundred and fifty employees. The hospital is a part of the Tenet Healthcare service and their headquarters are based in Dallas Texas.

The pied-billed grebe is a species of water bird and since the Podilymbus gigas is now extinct it is the only member of the Podilymbus left. They are small and stocky with short necks and have a wingspan of forty five to sixty two centimetres. They differ from the other grebes as they do not have any white under their wings. During summer their bills are encircled with a black belt and the throat is also black.

The snowy egret at one time had plumes that were very beautiful but the feathers were in great demand as they were used in woman's hats for decoration. They are now protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty and seem to be breeding well. They are fairly large, around sixty one centimetres in length with long black legs and yellow feet.
