All Seasons Resort - Europa St. James

... on the not so nice part of town. I think that KOA's are more classy than that Days Inn. They did however have a pool and we we're all pretty excited about that. Something to cool us off after that long day of driving.

One the Second night we found something a little better in both location and amenities. The Tropi-Rock Resort, just two blocks from the Famous Grand Fort ...

Cruised into Ft Lauderdale early Sat morning. From here we transfered to the airport for our flight back home to San Francisco. We got to the Airport around 10 am and our flight didn't leave till 4 pm. Arrived to San Fanncisco around 9 pm. Loong day but happy to be home.

Or was it??

Snitch flew down & met me at our hotel, which is where we have stayed for 3 days.... the decisions we had to make:

When to go down to the pool
Which bed to sleep on
When to turn over
When to go for a swim
When to have a cocktail...

It has taken some serious thought!! Just in case you can't picture it I've added some of my own!

Missing you all...

... t' really an option, because all my medication was in the luggage! Doh!

Eventually after spending 6 hours at the airport, we caught yet another shuttle bus to our new airport hotel. Once we arrived, we rang AA and arranged for our luggage to be sent back to Miami. It would be landing at 11pm.

Knowing that the next morning we would be catching the Greyhound at 5.30am and having no food services aboard the bus, we stocked up at the only shop nearby, a ...

The story so far...
I'm not that good on the internet, hence the fact that I've only just set up my blog and it's 5 days into the trip - still that's not that bad going for me, I did think it would of taken me longer, if not at all. Please also excuse any bad grammar and punctuations (my mum will scrutinise exactly what I have written incorrectly I'm sure). It's been a long time since I left any sort of education and we all know we don't need to ...

... while waiting for my flight, I decided to write my essay on the effects of dynamite fishing and cyanide fishing as part of my requirements from night school. I bumped into a friend, shared a cup of coffee and soon boarded the plane back to home sweet home. Despite the terrible hangover, it was nevertheless a smashing weekend and I am ready to go back for more.

... liked about the tour is that this company only does private tours and we liked that, it was the Captain and just me and my wife the trip was two hours and we took a lot of pictures which i will post some of them on here. I would definately reccomend doing an airboat ride in the florida everglades ...

... asked to watch The Hulk (http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/18075921 88/info). Yeah, that's right ... a 3, 4 and 5 year old asked to watch The Hulk. Well not even ten minutes into that they all zoned out ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :o). Well that's it. It was a great day for Rusty and the kids had a blast in the process :o) H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y R U S T Y !!!!!

(MIAMI) 5:05 pm Hey! I'm on the ship! It took almost forever to get here and get through stupid security checks. My room is fabulous! I'm writing this on the balcony. I'm still staring at the Miami skyline because we haven't departed yet but we should soon. (My baggage still isn't here.) On the balcony, there are two comfortable chairs and one not so comfortable chair as well as a small table (We had 3 people in our ...

... Laurie was done fast and got all her money back. The strange part was that for similarly priced items, his watch had to be processed upstairs! Very odd. We went through security and promptly found the VAT counter where there was no one in line and once up there they now told him he had to mail it in, which meant that we had to go BUY British stamps! Oh boy, spending more pounds (2x!). This ...
