We had a wonderful flight to Atlanta and went immediately to the Delta sky lounge. It was totally open and had a great breakfast buffet running when we go there.
We had 4 1/2 hours before our plane so this was a perfect place to relax.
Most of the people were sitting around without masks and we found a very comfortable place by the window overlooking one of the boarding areas with lots of people and planes coming and going.
The lounge was on the second floor – what a great place to relax waiting for a plane.
At the 11:00am they brought out lunch and so we ate lunch, had some drinks and waiting until it was time to leave for our plane.
Our plane ride was uneventful and we arrived in Ft. Lauderdale right on time, retrieved our one bag and took the shuttle to the rental car center.
Barb was surprised with a Camaro convertible after Ed convince the rental agent to give us one!
When we arrived at the Residence Inn in Sunny Isle Beach, the lobby was a madhouse because people coming and going for spring breaks; however, Tyler at the front desk did a wonderful job taking care of us and upgraded us to a corner room on the 16th floor with a view of the Atlantic Ocean and Ocean Drive below us.
According to the newspaper, the buildings across from us are the most expensive in all of Florida in which to purchase a residence.
As you can see by the picture, we had a wall of windows on two sides including the bathroom which was as entire wall of one window.
After organizing everything we went out for dinner and ate a salmon baguette at a Russian restaurant that was very good.
After dinner we relaxed watching the NCAA tournament on a 55-inch TV that was in our room.
All in all, a great start for our first day with a perfect flight, the Delta Sky Lounge experience, an upgraded room, an upgraded car and good restaurant.
Tomorrow we are looking forward to our first day on the beach. It has been soooo long since we have had a vacation!!
