Cold

I have had a stupid cold for over a week now. I think it is finally going away, but I am still getting congested at night (you know when I am trying to sleep). Unfortunately it got worse in Miami, reducing the fun factor for me. We did have a good time, even if it did rain for about 6 hours on Tuesday.

We tried to eat at one of THE places to eat, but the wait was 2.5 hours (no reservations). We ended up on a fun pedestrian street filled with shops and restaurants (in South Beach). We had a fabulous meal at an italian restaurant. Duane started with fresh mozzarella a proscuitto and I started with pasta. My main course was beef tenderloin over spinach with a cream sauce, parmesan and walnuts. Soooo good! After that we hung out at a bar ($6.50 bottles of Newcastle!) with a waitress from Italy (beautiful but terrible service). The people watching was insane.

The Dolphins stadium was awesome and the game was amazing (even though they lost). I would go back to Miami again sometime. Oh, the Miami International Airport is a dump, so I would recommend flying into the Ft. Lauderdale airport. It is smaller with fewer food and shopping choices, but it is much cleaner. My flight didn't leave until 10pm though, so it was a long day.

The weather is still warm here and I should be working on taking down the outside decorations. I just don't feel like it though.

I used our new camera in Miami and hopefully got some great pictures.
