babymoon

April 13, 2013

Brian and I just got back from our last trip before the kid arrives....they call it a babymoon these days :)

We wanted to go somewhere warm, obviously! We planned on doing a few days in Key West and a few days in Miami but the plans changed when the fabulous weather here in Ohio delayed our flight and we missed our connecting to the Keys. We weren't too upset about it though, since our connecting flight was through Miami and we were heading there anyways. Instead of spending the following morning flying to the Keys, we decided lets cancel that plan and just do a few days in South Beach and a few days downtown Miami as planned. Then things got better- American lost our luggage so we went the entire stay in South Beach without our bag. American did let us go shopping on them so we made the most of it and hit the beach, rode bikes, had some fabulous food and enjoyed being on the beach. Luggage came and then we headed to downtown Miami where we checked into the Epic Hotel. I've never seen so much money....and that's after living in Orange County for years. We rented cabanas by the pool, found a great french bistro for breakfast and treated ourselves to a fabulous seafood dinner! Cathi and Allen joined us on our last night and took us on a sunset cruise where we got all the info on some of Miami's most fabulous and their homes on all the islands. Of course we had to end the trip with more travel troubles- a 4 hour delayed flight that got us home at 3am but it was all worth it! We are now some of the only people in Ohio with a tan and we enjoyed each other and some R&R before little Reed comes along.
