Red Roof West Palm Beach

... angel fish, grouper, and a barracuda or two. It was pretty neat for being able to just swim out 30 ft and see such an array of creatures. Good thing there were no sharks that day though.<br><br>In the evening we headed over to my cousins house to meet up with relatives that we had not seen for years. They had a bridal shower / rehearsal dinner that included some of the extended family and we got to catch up which was pretty ...

... and played some ball which was fun. Last night we were there I got a little too drunk....it was 2 for 1 night. Haha...but TJ was such a gentleman. He took care of the rest of the laundry and packed up the car by himself and then drove for 9 hours. What a trooper. We did forget our car chargers though. Oops!!!!<br>

... card for my new video camera, plus a hands free ear piece for my phone, Lona was off looking at bags at the time.<br><br>We met Todd for lunch at Steak &amp; Shake, an upmarket McDonalds, with waiter service and really fancy milkshakes.<br><br>This evening was our last with our host Jay who is flying to New York with his family for the weekend to catch up with his brother who is living up there at the moment.<br><br>Lona did Tuna Pasta for dinner ...

... driver. Still waiting for the coffee, but we didn't need dinner.<br><br>All that beer and I fell asleep on the lounge back in Delray, but was stirred to watch a movie.<br> <br>Notice the Socceroos had a nice win in Northern Ireland, very good result I thought although the stats' indicate Ireland were well in it, A brace from Tim was good but I wish someone else would start scoring..

... Adam Brown at his house in Miami. It was lovely to hang out in his pool for the evening and watch the most spectacular storm. The following day we made our way to West Palm Beach which was beautiful!! The sand was so golden, although it was just too hot to do any sunbathing!...And i have to say the 'transvestite' show was something of a spectical!

... turnpike. Just go east for a while...15 miles from 95 and 10 miles from the turnpike. Yes it's out of the way but it's fun. I'm actually writing from my hotel in Fort Lauderdale right now. I was supposed to stay 3 nights in Miami but there's been a change in plans. Maybe I'll write about it tomorrow but probably not. Anyway, it will probably work out for the best. I am ...

... off at my mom's house in Orlando. We spent 2 days in Stuart going to various houses and restaurants meeting friends for our farewell dinners. We spent many hours rehashing old memories and stories; ending with promises to keep in touch and have them visit once we got settled. The more we were saying goodbye the more it was sinking in that we were actually leaving and starting our new adventure!
