Phoenix to Florida
Departed PHX with Austin yesterday morning. We surprised him with first class tickets, a perk from Bill's many trips. To quote Austin "I love first class"! The only way to fly. First breakfast then lunch. Austin started thinking about the most exciting thing about the day and he started off with 'I don't have to feed the dogs' then it went to the breakfast in first class to riding the monorail at DFW. Don't know what ended up to be the most exciting thing of the day. He certainly enjoyed the beautiful view of Maimi as we flew over it.
After arriving Miami, we made the reportedly 15 min walk to the monorail to the rental car offsite location which actally was 25 minutes and a long way around the airport.
Once in the car we drove to Key Largo in rush hour traffic which took 2 1/2 hrs - ugh. Finally arrived Key Largo at 8 pm and got dinner at a local beach restaurant.
Marriott upgraded us to a 1 bdrm unit which is good with 2 sleeping areas but a bit noisy because it faces the four lane ( a bit like sleeping next to a freeway) highway. Austin probably didn't notice it because he is in the inside room. Lucky for him.
We all hit the hay a little after 11 pm so we had to write this morning of day 2 while getting ready. Look for updates later today as the adventures begin.
There are no pictures to show you because Bill hasn't figured out how to add pictures and has in fact lost most of the pictures we took yesterday in his attempt to attach a picture, so he won't be doing that again. If he figures it out it will be icing on the on cake.
Now off to the alligators and the everglades.
