No place to sit while listening which is not too bad if it is not a really hot day. Otherwise very pleasant.

Very lively and full of repeat stories. Amanda was very energetic and kept the group on track. Downtown Fort Myers has some interesting history. The area has been refurbished beautifully and is very safe. You could do some nice shopping down there if you were interested, and there was a little variety in terms of eateries.
