Knowing this was going to be such a long time with no school I took a week off and planned a trip to Florida for Ally and me. We decided on Miami, South Beach to be exact. Because we wanted to stay in the USA, guaranteed warm weather, not too long of a flight and I did not want to rent a car.
It’s always hard to say goodbye to Daisy.
Traditional airport selfie.
On our hotel balcony.
I was so happy to see the balcony. It was large and had nice seating options.
We walked to a small pizza place and ate outside, then we went to Walgreens for cereal, milk, Diet Coke and some snacks.
The view from my lounger on our balcony was very nice.
It was so hot our first full day that Ally went in the pool and stayed in for a long time.
It was 85degrees, full sun and humid. Perfect for a break from cold cloudy Boston weather.
The iguana was entertaining.
Eventually Ally headed back to our room. I settled our tab and then went in to join her.
There was a very loud concert on Tuesday. It was Wyclef Jean playing an private event on a special stage they erected at the pool. It was so loud. But pretty neat to be at a private Wyclef Jean concert, even if we didn’t want to be.
I complained to the hotel management Bc it was so loud and they gave me a big credit on our bill. Totally worth it.
It was sunny and bright the next day too.
We just hung out in our room and balcony. Ally wasn’t feeling her best.
But some chips
And a milkshake helped. We watched a couple Disney movies on pay preview and that helped too.
Thursday morning I offered to get her pancakes from a nearby restaurant. She was pretty happy.
And we spent a few hours outside on our balcony again. It was a bit overcast so not as hot as the past few days.
We walked to the shopping district later in the afternoon and had fun at Aerie and Nike. Another pizza for dinner and then we watched a movie on Ally’s iPad together.
Friday morning Ally said she felt like donuts for breakfast. I had to laugh, because Dunkin is such a Boston thing, but it was super fast to Uber-Eats them to our hotel.
We enjoyed a lazy morning before headed to the airport at noon for our flight home.
We did walk down to the beach for another selfie.
Ally was so tired. She slept most of the flight home.
And at home, Daisy was so happy to have her back.
It was a nice relaxing time. Exactly what we both wanted and needed.
