Another beautiful day with a high of 83 predicted and met with minimal clouds.
We were at the beach again by 9am and left at 1pm with a nice
tan to start our cruise.
Lunch was the Russian restaurant that we had dinner at last
night and lunch was the best we have had on the beach this trip. Lunch was Salmon on a baguette role and it
was very, very good.
After lunch we took the slow way down Highway A1A 171 blocks
to the south end of Miami Beach. From
there we took the causeway by the port of Miami to the Cuban section.
We had heard about a wonderful fish/Cuban restaurant called
La Camaroner Seafood and Fish Joint and finally after a very scenic 1 ½ hour
drive we arrived at the restaurant. Had
we not read how outstanding it was we probably would not have stopped and we were
glad we did.
It has been a family-owned restaurant in the same place
since 1973. Their original business was
as fishermen who came to shore to sell their fish. In 1973 they went into the restaurant and
fish market business before they finally sold their boats to concentrate on the
restaurant.
We had a yellow tailed snapper that was fresh of the boat
that morning and wow was it good.
We finished with a desert of Key Lime Pie.
After dinner we went downtown Miami and browsed around the Bayshore Market before heading fot the hotel.
Going back, we took Highway 1 north for another 170 blocks
before turning on the causeway to the beach and our hotel and a free drink in
the lounge. They gave us two each night –
tonight it was a Mojito.
For our last day on the beach, it was a very relaxing day
and evening and tomorrow we board the ship.
Night from Sunny Isle Beach – next stop the Celebrity
Equinox.
