Destination? Delray Beach, Florida, The Holidays, Collado’s Market, Snowflaking?, Snowbirding?, South Florida, Palm Beach County
Over the years Delray Beach, Florida, has been a destination for my family. I might add that I visited Delray not only in the winter but throughout the year. Easy to get to from the Mid-Atlantic States. What first appealed to us was the fact that Delray Beach has unobstructed beaches. The water is crystal clear and the beach…..oh, soooo wide!!
You can tell my mind is wondering to warm places as winter begins today, Sunday, December 21st. It’s cold but I am not tired of it yet.
Delray Beach is quaint and charm. It is known as the Village by the Sea. It is not a manmade town, it always was there waiting for all of us to discover it. For many years it stayed dormant but not anymore. It is diverse, and it does have it all…great weather, shops, restaurants, artists, entertainment and history.
Delray can celebrate the holidays like no other town in South Florida. The 100 ft. Christmas Tree can be seen for miles. And, even the seagrape trees get decorated.
Out with the old and in with the new…..I still remember Santa’s House. The new one more modern to fit the times.
Santa will be visiting today from 6 p.m. until 10 p.m.
Delray might be quiet early in the a.m. but give it time as people start strolling, jogging, and power walking ready for a day in town.
Collado’s Market is located at 3416 S. Federal Highway in Delray Beach. Tel. 561-276-1866. They are open Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. It is a family owned market, and they do cater.
Driving south from Linton Blvd. on Federal they are 1.4 miles on the right just after Lindell Blvd. and Walgreens. And, if you are heading north on Federal they are 2 miles north of Yamato. Make a left turn just before Lindell Blvd. New super market have opened in Delray Beach, but Collado’s Market has that personal attention, and quick in and out access.
Gourmet platters, baked goods, sandwiches, salads, and wraps. Lunch or dinner entrees are always ready to go. Specialty orders are welcomed…just give them a call. Boar’s Head…gluten free!!
In-house wine sommelier can direct you the a unique selection of imported organic wines.
Fresh vegetables and always freshly squeezed orange juice!
Have a great Stress Free Vacation!!
