so what did i do? absolutely nothing. and i loved every second of it. plans from a few posts back went accordingly. the resort was fabulous, people waiting on us hand and foot. it was awesome. chocolates on the pillows, concierge that sends couresy sakitinis at each restaurant you book a reservation through him with... 15th floor room ('preferred customer')... 3 pools, super fluffy towels and comfy bathrobes... south beach itself was... scummy in comparison to SoCal. i didnt like it one bit. i honestly have felt more safer in NYC in the wee hours of morning than i did in florida. the nation's most expensive mall was across the street. dolce and gabanna, vera wang, d&g (yes, there is a difference), cole haan, tiffanys, bvlgari, lacoste, louis vuitton... 3 floors... i spent $15 getting my silver tiffanys necklace cleaned and thats all the money i spent while in ft. lauderdale. unfortunately i didnt have control of the camera, so there are only a few okay pictures i feel like sharing courtesy of laura... mostly views from our balcony; we didnt take the camera with us when we went to the beach. resort food is uber good, but also uber expensive. $12 pina colada, but i'd say it was worth it! the first night i stayed out on the beach with some family friends, then we realized we were hungry and just ordered pizza and watched stuck on you (with matt damon, very funny if its late at night) in one of our rooms. second night we ate at flanigan's, tasty. third night, china grill (awesome awesome place, the bass was so loud the floor was shaking) we went with a ton of people to FL, so each night we had between 10-15 people with us. it was a lot a lot of fun.
so yeah. then sunday we sat on a runway for 2 hours because it rained. (and rained. and rained.) but we flew song airline (sort of like jetblue), and i totally totally recommend it! individual tv's with movies, tv, and music. they had all of dmb's under the table and dreaming, so i listened to that all the way, both ways.
