June 19th Like any other night in miami last night was a rough night. Rough but so good at the same time. Today we decided to show the Irish lads the all you can eat Italian. This in theory was a cracking idea but in reality when we got in and started eating we realised we were that hungover we really couldn't make the most of it. With every bite we ate the closer we came to throwing up. However I mention and medal should go to the lady that kept filling our iced water up every few minutes. If she hadn't of done that I would of put money on one of us throwing up everywhere. Chris and Dec were meant to be going today but they didn't book a flight early enough to New ... read more

June 18th Today we decided we would go watch the Irish guys gig at the Irish pub again. So me and Rich gathered up the hostel troops And headed to get the bus into Miami down town. By this time it was 5 pm and I still hadn't eaten due to being hungover most of the day. We walked in, ordered 2 mains and a pint of Guinness. Whenever I have had Guinness before I have been drunk and not really tasted it. It actually comes to light the it's pretty good. Its like a meal but it was pretty good. The band is called "2 guys live" and would recommend them to anyone reading this. The energy and atmosphere they create in the room is amazing. We waited for them to finish and we could ... read more

June 17th I woke up exhausted as usual after a long chat the previous night with Rachael. For hours and hours I explained how I don't like how all over me she is in the day and that I didn't go on this trip to get into a relationship. I also explained that I like to watch the euros on tv in the day and her sitting on my lap, when there are several spaces around is not appropriate. Also kissing my neck and biting my ears when im talking to my friends hungover to s*** is never going to put me in the mood. I was hoping she will have got the picture by now. This day was one that all the hostel goers had been looking forward to all week. There was a pool ... read more

June 16th Our aim for Miami is to go out every night that we could. This was 10 nights out in a row. We were both starting to feel the effects of drinking and averaging 4 hours sleep a night so far. The day started as per usual. Get up, get water and make our way down to be ridiculed for last nights actions. Rich's shadow (Rachel) throughout our whole time here has been like a leach on his side. She is crazy but no one has the heart to tell her she has the mental age of a 5 year old girl with the sex drive of a hooker. Some of the stuff coming out of her mouth in the middle of the day in standard group conversation with people you have only known for ... read more

We stayed at the Deauville Beach Resort on the recommendation of our travel agent. It was all the way up in North Beach, and not in South Beach like we wanted, but it was cheap and right on the beach. Parking was 7 blocks away at a city lot and this place made some mistakes. When we arrived the first weekend, they gave us a key TO SOMEONE ELSE'S ROOM! Thank goodness the occupants weren't there when we opened the door, they would have been pissed. The lights were on and their stuff was stewn all over the place. So we had to go back down to the front desk to get another room key. The next weekend we came back to stay at the same hotel. In a sense, it was a good thing because ... read more

June 15th Miami Again waking up, feeling as rough as a badgers arse we headed down to the social area and start our routine. Go down, get a lot of H20 in us and find Chris, Dec and others on the porch all ready to converse about the stories of the night. This normally left us in stitches. Out of the four of us at least 2 would of done something they regret. This was obviously to the amusement of everyone else at the hostel. We have made a good lot of friends since we have been here. During the day it is pretty standard, complain about it's too hot, being hungover and going to get a subway. All the funny stuff happens at night. On tonight's agenda was starting off at a bar called love ... read more

Thursday 14th of June I woke up and the room was spinning like I was on an episode of magic roundabout. My mouth like sandpaper and a voice more horse than red rum.Michael was feeling very similar it was going to be a long day. We headed to the sitting area to get a large cold drink from the water fountains we were both overheating badly. We headed outside into the sauna to find our Irish friends and exchange stories and memories from our nights antics. This is we're we found several stupid videos of us being stupid. And where I found out about kissing that girl chis being offered drugs and me falling asleep. It didn't take long before most of the hostels residents were outside sharing there own stories of drunken nights out. It ... read more

Wednesday 13th of June An amazing first night out in Miami's coveted south beach, had left Michael and I with very high hopes for the good things to come in the rest of our stay. We had woken with only a slight hangover, just very tired. However Michael rightly insisted that we should get up as it was already 11:30am. We got downstairs and met some of the hostel members that we had been chatting to the previous night. The vibe in the hostel was excellent everyone was so happy and there to socialise. Well the Euro's 2012 had started and one of the main hostel employees was Dutch he had put orange everywhere and every person had seemed to gather in the sitting area to watch the match unfold. This is where we met and ... read more

Woke up at 4am and were at Miami air port by 5 for our flights to Cancun, Mexico! We were very excited to just get there and RELAX as we had been going non stop the whole time. We started the trip saying 'we'll sleep when we're dead' and then throughout the trip exhaustion and a lot of fatty food changed the saying too 'we'll sleep and exercise when we're in Cancun'. We were excited to leave the crappy rainy weather in Miami but when we got into Cancun it was still overcast which was poo. The shuttle that I had organised got us to the resort in a flash and I was ridiculously excited. I have never been to a resort before (and I did a degree in it!) let alone an ALL INCLUSIVE resort ... read more

Today was my day to sleep in till 12:30! Whoops! Today my hangover was even worse than yesterday but we were determined to go bike riding on the main land so we headed off with me wondering if I'd be able to ride with my head spinning like that. We stopped in to a Cuban restaurant for breki and both ended up with nothing Cuban. When we got to the bike rental shop they unfortunately (thankfully as I was dying) didn't have any of the bikes that we could afford (so poor and only half way through our trip) so we trudged home without doing anything and played on our iPads and took a much needed nap!When I got up I heard some other aussies in the hostel talking about the Miami Heat NBA playoff game ... read more
