Wow! Miami!
Well after a long but comfortable flight we arrived at Miami Airport. As we were going though passport control Weasle thought It would be a good Idea to take a photo but it was quickly realised it was not as 5 burley guards came charging towards us "Sir you can not take photos here SIR!" lol.
The airport shuttle took ages to arrive as we stood in the sweltering heat. I bourght my first American Coke and was shocked to discover that.......I tastes exactly the same! (Peter Kay les Cadbures Fingeres reference.)
The hotel weasle choose is brilliant. Right on Miami Beach and the staff are friendly to say the least. Dee at reception was so typically American and yes they really do say "You have a nice day now sir!"
We went to a steakhouse called Outbacks and had a FAT FAT FAT meal. I had for starters an apsolute pile of chips with cheese, spring onions, bacon the works. Then two massive dijon chicken breasts with a fat jacket potatoe that had loads of filling options!
Also had a 1 pint 4floz can of Bud which is massive ofcourse.
Anyway going to sit on miami beach now and do nothing might for for a dip in the scorchingly hot sea.

Helen's waiting for the Journey.
Well its fair to say tention mixed with tiredness gets you nowhere with the girlfriend, she's gone to sleep to block out my moaning!
3.00am now and waiting to set off for heathrow at 4.00. Must remember to ring Rob a friend of mine that is meeting us in Orlando in 4 days that he needs to tell me what fiight he is getting in on because as it stands I know he is coming to America but not a clue what time! Hes getting woken up a 6!
Just added Whisky to Tea for the first time. Quite good but smells and tastes like TCP quite amasing a tot of whisky could do that to tea really!
Anyway I hope my next post will be alittle more interesting and in america. If I do go down over the Atlantic, Harry your "the Tribe" hat is on my bedroom table and get my parents to post it back to you upon my demise.
All the best, Ive included a sneeky pic of the RV we are renting!

The Night Before
Well, here we are.
One full year in the planning and tommorow I leave on a train to Helens and then the morning after, to Heathrow.
Looking at my cases I can't help but feel I have not put nearly enough time and effort into packing but then again thats pretty standard of me really.
