Day One: Everglades

Our journey to the Bahamas began last Sunday. After arriving in Miami with no trouble at all we rented a car and headed down to South Beach for dinner. We eat at a great Cuban restaurant, but that was hardly the highlight of the trip. Dave and I (mainly Dave) couldn't get enough of all the rare cars. We must have seen 6 Bentley's within two miles, along with several Corvettes, Mercedes, and every other rare expensive car you can think of.
After driving up and down the streets of South Beach we hit the beach for a late night walk. The wind was blowing and it was beautiful.

Monday morning we drove about 40 minutes outside of Miami to take and air boat tour of the Everglades. I had wanted to see them since I was a little girl, I'm not sure if they were worth all the hype I had given them, but it was pretty great to see.



By 3 o'clock we had boarded our ship and were ready to eat like crazy for the next 4 days and play even harder.

HOW FUN!!! I can't wait to hear more about your trip! Post more pics about what you did! I'm glad you went to the Bahamas, while you were gone...I was thinking you were going to Mexico & they weren't going to let you off the boat because of the swine flu.

Can't wait to hear more about all the fun you had! We need to get together!!
