Hey Everyone,
On Sunday morning after our pleasant visit and delicious brunch at the home of Emilia’s son, we were off to South Beach (just about a 20 minutes drive) to check into our upscale hotel on Collins Avenue in the Art Deco district.
Upon entering the hotel we were offered a complementary glass of champagne and provided a nice bottle of wine as a welcome gift since I am an premium IHG member. I was also able to get a room upgrade ….a corner penthouse that was totally private with a jacuzzi on the large balcony, a European kitchen with an expreso machine and a separate master bedroom with king size bed (for Marco and Rosaria) and also a living room with a pull out sofa-sleeper for me!

Your dessert sounds delicious and I’m sure it is. I love a good Mojito and South Florida is the place to enjoy one!
Those old hotels are fantastic – I’ve always stayed at the National Hotel when attending the WMC. Such fun & memorable times. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Dear Linda, the joke we heard in Las Vegas: a woman complains to her husband, “How can I go out? It’s 104 in the shade!” “So who says you have to walk in the shade, ” he retorts.
I’ll tell you a big secret: there are powerful fans in all restaurants with outside seating here, in addition to ocean breeze.
Thank you for stopping by, dear friend!

For my husband and I, there were delicious drinks and lots of fun, since the restaurant is not kosher and we can’t eat there. But Gary and his friends enjoyed the meal.
