Day 63 - Miami

Had a big sleep in this morning which was a bit surprising. The beds in the bug motel were quite comfortable lol! No breakfast but we did get a tea and coffee at least!! Checked out and had a few hours to kill before checking in to our new home so went for a drive to South Beach. It was beautiful! Lots of trees down and debris that I'm sure isn't normally there but the beach itself was reasonably clean and the water was beautiful!! It was really hot so a cool down in the ocean was just what we needed.
 

 

Stopped after our swim for a bit of a wander down Lincoln Mall - will have to go back and have a good look I think! Drove to our apartment and finally got in. It is gorgeous, well compared to our bug motel.  No pool which is really disappointing as that's one of the reasons we picked this one. There is a pool here but it is closed which would have been lovely to know before we booked.

Kids were exhausted, has been a big couple of days (ok nine weeks!). Decided they could have a quiet, early night in the hotel and Ian and I went for a walk to get some dinner. We walked along the waterfront, there was so much damage there with trees down and fences and lots of places still don't have power. Heaps of people were out playing basketball and volleyball and there were so many dogs!! The kids would have loved it.


We went to a tapas restaurant that was at the bottom of our complex. It was really nice food and pretty generous servings too! The peace and quiet was priceless! ❤
