Spring 2022 – Celebrity Silhouette - Day 1 & 2

 Spring 2022 – Celebrity Silhouette

Day 1 & 2

Inspire of having to get up at 3:45am for a 6:00am flight, it was a good trip to Ft. Lauderdale.

We had 2 hours in Atlanta so we made a 1 ½ stop in the Delta lounge for their breakfast and drinks.

The Flight to Ft Lauderdale was right on time and we then picked up our bags and took the shuttle bus to the Enterprise Rental Center. 

They upgraded us to the large 4-door Nissan and it has been a great car.

The Residence Inn that we are staying in is right next one of the nicest malls in South Florida, Aventura Mall and the hotel said there were some good places for lunch.

We went there and found an amazing outdoor food court which was unlike anything we had seen in a mall before.

There were no fast-food or buffet style restaurants.  All of them were sit-down with different themes like Susi, Greek, Peruvian, etc.  They were a little expensive but very good food and service.

Dinner was at one of our favorite restaurants which is right in the center of the Russian and Jewish areas – the town of Sunny Isle Beach.

In the past we have talked about all of the exotic cars we have seen in this area at anytime of the day or night.  This year it is different.  We saw a lot of fancy SUV’s but virtually none of the high-priced sport cars.  The only thing we could figure is that, because of the war in Ukraine, they are “laying low”!!

We very seldom turn on the tv when we are gone; however, we did watch the University of Illinois squeak another win.

We slept in and finally made it to the beach at 1:00pm after first having lunch. 

We stayed on the beach until 3:30pm and then drove back to the hotel and left for dinner at a Greek restaurant that we like in Surfside.

Then we watched the Bulls play before going to bed.

Night from Florida.
