Travel day today. I always wonder why we have to get up in the middle of the night to go on vacation, but it seems that we just do. The car service picked us up just before 6 am and we were through security and at our gate (with coffee!) by 6:30. I do love the little Humphrey terminal! To start off the day right, Andrew had upgraded us to 1st class for the first leg to Tampa. Sun Country has fairly reasonable upgrade prices so it only ended up being a few dollars more per person because we didn't have to pay to check bags. A few the other "perks", aside from the lovely, spacious seats were free drinks, use of a digital movie player, and a hot breakfast. I would say that the first two were perks, the third was not.

First class breakfast. The fruit was good. The rest, not so much. |

We landed in Tampa about noon, and then had a three-hour layover before our short flight to Miami. Once in Miami, we picked up the rental car, stopped for dinner, and then made our way to the hotel. Andrew has a knack for finding great places for a great deal on Priceline, and the Doral Resort is no exception. Home to the Caddilac Classic golf tournament, and newly purchased by the Donald, it's quite beautiful. The room is spacious and we have a sweet little patio that overlooks the golf course. I wish we were staying longer! Tomorrow morning we'll head out by about 7 am to get back to the airport for our flight to Belize....
