Welcome to Miami!!

When: May 4th - 6th, 2007

Where: Miami, Florida

Why: Rest and Relaxation

How: By sheer luck

Who: The three amigos - Catherine, Matthew and Me!


Miami welcomed me for a nice three-day getaway the first weekend in May. My boys sent me away for a relaxing trip to see our friends, Catherine and Matthew. I was looking for some fun, some sun and some beach time on the Atlantic Ocean. I got all of that and then some...

After partying it up at my most recent house purchase, oh wait, that's not my house...we ventured for some food on the water with everyone's favorite Eastern European waiter, Norbert. Matthew tried to see if Norbert could pass the litmus test of funny. He did not pass.

The next day, we ventured to South Beach and partied it up at my most recent house purchase, oh wait, that is the Versace mansion. We had another great lunch outside and ventured around to some stalls at the outside antique market that was going on. I found some beautiful artwork for the future-baby-to-be's room and some wild and wacky purses. I can not go anywhere it seems without buying a purse.

After some much deserved gelato [YUM!], we hit South Beach, where clothing was optional it seemed....for all ages.

We ended up eating on the main street and were not disappointed by the scenery. I am proud to also say that Florida had been going through a drought until I came down there. There was a huge thunder and lightning storm that evening, and everyone took that as their cue to go home. We followed suit, but the storm did not stop us from getting some Ben & Jerry's.

Thank you, Catherine and Matthew for such a relaxing and fun time. I loved spending time with you guys.
