Rare sid_9169 Posted September 20, 2019 Author #176 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'm through security, and at my gate notoriously early... I've switched out my Marta breeze card for my Miami easy pass... When I first got on the train, there was a guy coughing and sneezing as if he was about to die... Of course, I got off at the next stop and switched trains. I'm debating on whether to buy a fifty dollar bottle of water here at the airport. I suppose that I do need to hydrate, so I probably will... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted September 20, 2019 Author #177 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Five people beat me to the boarding group 1 line... This is a record, as the only other time ever, there was this one guy... On a side note: as the plane was disembarking, a guy who apparently forgot his bag started running backwards towards the plane tunnel. The gate attendant stopped him, and asked what he was doing. She said "you just came about two feet from going to jail just now"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 20, 2019 Author #179 Share Posted September 20, 2019 This is as close to an airplane selfie as you're ever going to get... Unless someone is willing to donate $500, that is... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lazydayz Posted September 20, 2019 #185 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Have a safe flight and enjoy Miami! I am so happy you are cruising this week. It will help get me through the week as I prepare for our 9/29 Miracle Panama Canal cruise (doing the single digit dance today). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reeinaz Posted September 20, 2019 #186 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'm pretty new to this site so I'm not kicking myself too hard for not knowing about your "reviews" before now. But just reading through the first 5 pages made me go and look up your other reviews. I am really enjoying them. Everyone obviously can share their opinions and likes and dislikes but your cruise stories are entertaining and informative. I'm also reading the Feb 2019 Breakaway review and have a notepad beside me to jot down notes on New Orleans since I'll be visiting for the first time in conjunction with my first cruise in December. I've already planned out my own booze and food walking tour but am still looking for more places. Cheree 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 20, 2019 Author #189 Share Posted September 20, 2019 After a safe and uneventful flight, I am on the ground in wet Miami... I retrieved my checked bag, which fortunately wasn't pilfered by the TSA this time, and I made my way to the Metrorail... In about a half hour I should be in downtown Miami / Brickell... Hopefully they'll allow me to go ahead and check into the hotel, and I can unburden myself of my bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also wipe down the tray table and the seat buckle with anti bac wipes. Edited September 20, 2019 by cml4958 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted September 20, 2019 Author #194 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I'm on the ground in Brickell now, and was making the walk towards my hotel... I walked through a back alley, and I knew that I was close. I opened up my map, and I was standing literally twenty feet from the building, only I couldn't see the sign. Anyhoo, I'm at my new home for the night... Luckily, I'm not superstitious... The exterior view of the Hyatt Centric Brickell... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
