Hey Corde thank you for these great tips!
Would we be able to apply for the credit card as we are not US citizens?
I downloaded the app earlier this week, looking forward to plugging our flight numbers in and seeing what it does.
Hope we don't have delays, coming home DH has to be back at work next day, we are already going when we shouldn't as it is in term time!
Really looking forward to this trip, I am storing all the great suggestions.
Good to know, thanks eagle.
We were supposed to be British Airways but AA are operating it on their behalf.
Hey prepster thank you.Lol! We had a little bird nesting in a large pot near the front door and I wouldn't let anyone use the front door until her little birdies were hatched and had flown away. Every little bit helps.Hopefully she'll repay the favor by eating a mosquito, or fly or tick so they won't bite me.
RE: Miami
When I'm in Miami I like to stay at the Ritz-Carlton on Key Biscayne. DH likes it there because he likes to play golf at Crandon. If you like golf, it is a par-72, and supposedly (I say because I don't play golf) one of the top 100 courses. It is about 10-ish minutes from Miami Beach, but more low-key (pardon the pun).
Xiang mentioned the Ritz Carlton at South Beach, I wonder if it is the same one.
My DH is not a golfer, there are no engines involved with golf, unless you count the buggy, but that is probably electric thinking about it.
I bet Miami is glorious for playing golf, beautiful spaces and endless sunshine.

Hi, The RC at South Beach is a different hotel, but also nice, on the South Beach "strip." The one on Key Biscayne is on Grand Bay Drive and is a few minutes away from South Beach and is more resort-ish. If you don't stay there but decide to go out to Key Biscayne to see the SeaQuarium or the lighthouse, or take a sea plane tour, there is a good place at the hotel for burgers on the beach, very low-key and casual--I think it's called Dune.
Sorry but I agree with others, not loving these on you.
Although if they are comfy then it is worth it.
I think my favorite type is somewhere in the middle, not completely abstract, but with a minimal plot, more about evocative, as you say, or suggesting a truth.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm trying a different size but they must be comfy and attractive to stay.
Wasn't the News Cafe where gianni Versace got his brew and papers? I/We never thought of people watching, what a great idea. I go primarily for antique shows, visiting a different H, and the bright sunny colorful days.
In the 80s we were on a tour of Miami which included buzzing past the pastel Deco buildings. There was a cluster of them and they stood out from the rest of the architecture. If you want to know what they looked like before the rest of the area got built up watch the early scenes in Scarface, the movie. It's not a big panoramic view of them but then in the 80s they weren't really a big panoramic view, anyhow.Hi xiang that sounds wonderful I love Deco buildings.
Thank you for the tips!
Looking forward to checking them out.
Cleaned closets today. Didn't intend to, but was in a mood to discard/pass things on. I found a number of things in the closet that had been "lost" for while. So now I can wear them.
I generally avoid fiction in favor of history or biography. I wanted to read The Remains of the Day and wound up instead with another Kazuo Ishiguro novel, An Artist of the Floating World. I sat up all night to finish that sucker. I'm not sure I really understood it for all that. This is what fiction does to me: I gotta see the end right away. With nonfiction, I already know the ending. I can take my time, read it thoughtfully, or better, just dip into whatever section I feel like reading whether it's in chronological order or not.
Would we be able to apply for the credit card as we are not US citizens?
I think so. Credit is pretty international. The worst that can happen is they would not approve your application. So all you lose is about 5 minutes of your time on a long flight.
I didn't think they would approve us since we already had one. They approved both of us so now we have 3 citibank cards with different account numbers. You have to spend about $2,000 on them before they give you the miles. We pay for absolutely everything by credit card to get the miles and pay off the full balance each month so we have no finance charges.

I live on the west coast of FL. It has rained every day for the past three weeks. The mosquito population has mushroomed. You will definitely want insect repellant. I like the Cutter brand just because it doesn't stink.

That is a really interesting perspective. I never thought about it that way!
I rarely read nonfiction other than work-related, but have enjoyed what I have read. Did you read Devil in the White City? That was really engaging.
