Our fourth overseas trip for this celebratory year began on Sunday morning, November 18th. We headed to Adelaide airport from where we flew to Sydney and after a short stop in the Qantas Lounge boarded a Qantas flight to the USA. We had asked to be upgraded using Fletcher's frequent flyer points and we were delighted when we were informed the day before we left that we had been successful. Therefore, the flight from Sydney to Dallas, which was 14 hours, we spent in Business Class which made the trip so comfortable. Lovely food and the ability to sleep stretched out made time go very quickly. Arriving in Dallas we had a fairly easy path through customs and then a one hour wait in the American Airlines lounge before boarding our very full Economy flight to ... read more

Here we are, the 29th State visited by Tanya....and we did it through two different stays! The first one was after some flying time. Durban-Dubai, 8 hours on a plane...than it was a long 23 hours transfer in Dubai...drinking way too much bubbles before heading for a dreadful 15 hours flight, full flight all the way to Fort Lauderdale. This is my first flight to the tiny airport. Emirates doesn't fly to Miami, but to this tiny airport few miles North. Great news, we would be out way ahead of schedule....to explore a little! Rented the car and we are on our way West, all the way to the Everglades. It is lunch time, but it's freezing. Temperatures top a maximum of 12 degrees...something I have never experienced around South Florida. At least we are lucky, ... read more

Dimanche 20 Août, il pleut sur Miami Beach et contrairement à d'habitude, il n'y a pas le plus petit coin de ciel bleu... On attend un peu avec l'espoir que ça cesse, et finalement au bout d'une demi-heure, il semble qu'une accalmie se dessine. En bons bretons, on ne va quand même pas se laisser impressionner, et on part donc vers le nord sur Washington avenue. C'est une des artères principale qui traverse Miami Beach du Nord au Sud, elle est bordée de palmiers de chaque coté et sur le terre-plein central et tout le long on trouve des restaurants, des bars, des boutiques et aussi quelques une des fameuses boites de nuit de Miami Beach. Les bâtiments de chaque coté ne sont pas très haut, un ou deux étages maximum. Au bout d'une demi-heure de ... read more

New Years Day 01/17 After New Year's Eve I felt quite hungover. It didn't help by the fact that I was woken up at 7am by that creepy guy I mentioned. He was playing techno music through his headphones but it was so loud that the whole room could hear. What makes matters worse is that when I looked down at his bunk he was violently masturbating under his blanket!! I just rolled over and pretended to be asleep. Luckily I was on the top bunk. I woke up at around 10.30am. I got some food from 7 eleven and ate it by the beach. I went on the beach for an hour or so after that but it was very hot so could not stay out there for long. I was really craving a milkshake ... read more
