Cracks me up, I’m packed AT LEAST the weekend before and although I’m a light packer, I at least need a real suitcase but I’m packing for two. I liked Vista, was with 6 other couples Feb24-March 4 8 day Eastern, fantastic time

My Uber was right on time, and this adventure is under way!!!...

 

Next stop, ATL where I will be utilizing the TSA pre check line, and hopefully a smooth and on time flight to MIA...

Atlanta resident and rapper, Ludacris has a restaurant here at the Atlanta airport... I've already purchased an obscenely over priced bottle of water, so I'm holding out for happy hour in Miami.

Well, when nature calls, and you're ocd like me, you have to have a plan... Traveling solo means there's no one to watch my bag while I'm in the restroom, so I bring several 13 gallon garbage bags, so as to not get urine or who knows what else on my stuff... I go to therapy for this, but it's not working out too well...

Loving your comments about OCD, as I’m exactly the same, and drive my husband absolutely nuts! I am ALWAYS at the airport at least 2 hours prior to a flight! I have lists of my lists to pack at least 1-2 months prior, and begin packing at least 2 weeks prior of some items. Leaving on a trip June 7th, and suitcases are already open, and starting to be loaded. 😊👍

Wheels down in Miami, and waiting for the metro rail to leave the station heading downtown...

 

Weather forecast: Liquid sunshine:( Forecast for my liver tonight? Possible failure...

After debarking the metro rail, I took a short trip on the metro mover, arriving at the ME Meleia Miami... No exterior photos yet, it was raining a bit...

I'm interested in your opinion of the Vista as a solo. I solo'd it two years ago in Europe and had a blast. Have fun!

My whole day so far has been spent mostly on subway trains and airplanes... I'm finally settled into the hotel, and now heading out on the metro mover again... Destination: Brickell, and some adult beverages.

On my last cruise I experimented with the " party patch" so today I'm trying out a new patch that I found online...

Most places in Miami don't have happy hour on the weekends, but I have a couple mapped out that do... * Yes, that's a hand drawn map...*

My traditional first drink in Miami is at Trulucks seafood and steakhouse... I present to you, the Amorosa. A spicy margarita with Patron reposado...
