Last Hurrah!

Since we found out about the move, we've tried to do some things we've been wanting to do here in Florida, but never got around to it. First we went to Miami!

We had a day off together so we used it wisely. We drove down on Sunday night after work and got a hotel. It's a 4 hour drive, and we wanted to play during the day so this worked out great. We slept in and went to breakfast and then the beach that morning. The water was amazing! Almost as pretty as Hawaii. We only stayed at the beach for an hour though because it was sooo sunny and Keith burns easily. I, however, got a nice tan. Miami was very interesting. We left also because we found out the hard way that we were in the topless section of the beach... YEAH.

Anyway, it's a very pretty city! I love the architecture there. I would definitely like to go back someday and spend more time there.

The other thing we did was visit Universal Studios! The Wizarding World of Harry Potter just opened a couple weeks ago. We knew if we didn't go check it out before we left, that we would regret it. It was so much fun! We were there for about 6 hours and that and Jurassic Park were the only attractions we visited. It was very cool. We ate at The Three Broomsticks for lunch and had an amazing feast served with some butterbeer! Then we went to Honeyduke's and had some chocolate frogs! :D The best ride there was definitely The Forbidden Journey. The queue where you wait in line was SO cool. I was in awe and teared up a little from how realistic things were. They had the hall of portraits that talked to each other and it looked SO FREAKING REAL. It's magic. The ride itself was awesome too. I was speachless at the end. Wow.

Right now, I am sitting on an air mattress and am about to go to bed. Tomorrow we wake up and head out to San Antonio. I can't believe it! It all happened so fast. We are sure gonna miss Florida. It has definitely been an adventure. I'm excited for a new one! Wish us luck! :D
