Turen til Miami gik nemt, men Tania glemte at drikke og spise så hun havde det ikke særligt godt da vi kom frem. I Miami havde vi igen 5 timers ventetid. Vi gik ind i en Diners Club lounge hvor vi var helt alene, så vi kunne få nogle timers søvn. ... read more

Some brief notes from Elise and my weekend trip to Miami. I normally don't feel inclined to write about a weekend wedding trip (since at our rate I'd never have time to do anything else), but this trip had some interesting events and besides we were in Miami so it felt like an actual vacation too. So, here's a few things that took place, or I observed. Friday (May 4): We arrive at our hotel, the Mayfair Hotel & Spa.

Anyway, I'm currently not travelling... I'm home typing away, watching th Discovery Channel, longing to get on a plane and go somewhere... but alas, I won't be going anywhere for at least another couple of weeks. Nevertheless, I will be detailing about my past adventures, including my trips last year to NYC, Chicago, NC, and TN, and my past trips to exotic Carribean destinations like Grand Cayman, DR, and Jamaica... and my most emotional trips of all: my 2 trips to Cuba and how hard it was for me to say goodbye each time. So I hope to chat with many ... read more
