We made it down Saturday around 3:00pm after leaving around midnight. I drove to Georgia while Jessica slept. around 7am we stopped for breakfast and switched so I could get some sleep. We were both getting excited the closer we got and decided to get off of the interstate about an hour north of the Hotel. After making our way through a sketchy neighborhood we hit A1A, the beach road.
Slowly making our way south, looking at some amazing houses and catching glimpses of the turquoise water we arrived at our home for the next week. It is a neat little resort right across the street from the beach. Next to us, across the side street is a Ritz Carlton, with Lamborghini’s and Ferrari’s parked alongside. Just past the Ritz are 3 blocks of bars and beach stores, most of which have 2 for 1 happy hours.
Us at Nikki Marina
Sunday we had brunch at Nikki Marina, a really nice place in Hollywood Fl. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was very relaxing. There was a 2 person band playing American and Latin music. We spent about 2 hours enjoying the food and listening to the music. Once we left on our way back we stopped in a Wal-Mart in Miami, something I would avoid in the future, people were everywhere, parking was a nightmare and we just got what we needed and left to find a regular grocery store.
We stopped at this Liquor store to pick up some drinks for our room, and the guy was giving out samples of premixed Bacardi Mojito. We bought a bottle of the Mojito, and some Rum and were on our way. That evening we went out to LuLu’s Bait Shack and split an 84oz Fruit Punch Fishbowl.
Jessica Finishing our Fishbowl
Today we enjoyed the crystal clear ocean, goofed off in the pool, walked around and did a little shopping. We saw a man fishing for Coconuts with a 30ft pole that had a hook on the end. It looked much harder than you would think.
We are having a great time and enjoying having this time together.
