Ha ha ha Bags arrived OK thank goodness was worried a little when they where over night in London but they checked for me to make sure they where on the flight and they said they where and guess what they where.

One last leg for the day!

January 3, 2009 (Edmonton ˇV Miami) HmmmmˇK gonna try to make a long story short here as Iˇ¦m sure I can type holes through my laptop as I type due to a LITTLE frustration. So, given that weˇ¦re all a little tired, and we almost didnˇ¦t get up this morning due to no courtesy phone call (as we requested), and our alarm not working, the fact that ...

Miami or Bust

Drop off the hire, grab a plane and head to Miami where we pick up yet another hire car and try to get to South Beach Miami for a little R&R before the cruise.

The supper club

Well howdy there folks. I know it's been a while since my last post, I'd like to say I've been busy or at least distracted, but I guess lazy is the best word to use. Last week the showband went out to the Scarlett's Supper Club on the ship. It's like a gourmet onboard steakhouse, and the food and service were amazing! I had the 24oz porterhouse ...

Bienvenido A Miami

We got away for a short vacation to Miami to escape the winter in New York. There's not a lot of tourist around since it's off season. Very relaxing and quiet. We got the public beach at key Brisbayne to ourselves. We discovered great restaurants. One next to our hotel called 'Berries' is hip and reasonably priced. Menu is close to Cheesecake Fa...

Tampa to Miami by Amtrak

Hello there, we arrived at the Amtrak station one hour earlier and our "luck" surprinsigly started: Jarrett dropped his 31lb bag over his new camera and broke the outter screen that protects the LCD screen....at least the camera was still working...Whenever we upload the picture we took in front of the station you will be able to see how happy h...

Back in the US

I had a really quick flight here to Miami. It's really only about 3.5 hours flying time from Quito to Miami. Unfortunately I'm stuck in the Miami airport again with a long layover. Thanks to anyone that checked out the blog; I love how you can publish details of a trip real time. You gotta love technology.

Day 7

I woke up earlier than necessary this morning so I could say goodbye to my tour mates. They were pulling away at 7:30. It was sad to see them go (well most of them ;) ) but I knew that I'd run into a few of them some other time. Adam and I left the hotel just before 8 o'clock and headed for Charles de Gaulle. This flight didn't go without incide...

Hi Guys, This is the first stop on our round the world trip. Survived the flight after 10 hours, nick was a calming influence after a few bumpy moments! Day 1 - Arrived at the hotel around 4.30pm, to glorious rapture from the inhabitants of Miami. Hotel was really nice and we were 2 minutes from South Beach and Ocean Drive, so slap bang in the m...
