April 27, 2012 Miami, Florida


We woke up around 6:30am and headed up to watch the sun come up. Had breakfast at the buffet at the back of the ship and then back to the cabin to get ready to leave.

They started calling self-disembark people around 7:30am so we started to make our way down. We ended up at the doors and there were no other people there and we were off the ship in minutes. This was the quickest I have ever gotten off a ship. 

We grabbed a cab to our hotel and had them store our luggage. We sat in the lobby for a while until it was time to head to Bayside for our tour. The city tour was wonderful. We saw lots of areas of the city (South Beach, Coral Gables, Little Havana) and it really is a lovely city. 



Back to Bayside for a lunch stop and then on to the boat tour. We saw lots of huge mansions from the water. 

Once the tour was over we stopped for a quick drink before heading back to the hotel to check in. Our room this time has a pool view and the room has been renovated - very pretty.

We went out for a walk to the hotel Diane stayed at last time she was here (which is just down the street). We stopped for dinner at a bar between the two hotels and shared hummus and crab cakes.

Not sure why but there was lots of traffic in the downtown area tonight and the drivers love to use their horns! We walked around a bit more and then headed back to the hotel.
Tomorrow South Beach!
