Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #51 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Per the usual, I'm staking my claim on first in line for boarding group 1... I'll be sitting down for over two hours, so a little standing around will do me good. I'll be walking probably about 4 or 5 miles this afternoon in addition...

Rare Lupush Posted November 30, 2018 #53 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Reading your Vista review and just got to the point where the biker snorted the Fireball. Almost hurled. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #54 Share Posted November 30, 2018 So, I'm standing here at the zone 1 pole and this lady walks up and sets her bag down directly in front of mine. I said " lady, you're seriously not trying to blatantly cut in front of me, are you?" Anyhoo, she's now second in line for zone 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lupush Posted November 30, 2018 #56 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Just binged the Vista review. I'm all aboard for the Bliss! Try and save some booze for those of us on the Dec. 8th sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #60 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Wheels down in Miami... Waiting for the next Metro Rail train towards Brickell... We landed twenty minutes ahead of schedule, and I'm likely too early to check in to the hotel. When I get downtown I'm going to walk to the local taco stand and take in some nourishment before heading out drinking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #61 Share Posted November 30, 2018 My Chariot has arrived... This is my first time on one of their new subway cars. The old ones were pretty crappy... This is much nicer in comparison. I may actually be able to take a picture out the window of this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #65 Share Posted November 30, 2018 My friends, we have arrived! After the tacos, it was a few blocks away to my castle for the evening. The Conrad Miami Brickell... And a few pics from the walk over and the room itself... And the view from my window (no balcony) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it didn't totally hold off the hangover, I do feel like it lessened the intensity and duration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted November 30, 2018 Author #69 Share Posted November 30, 2018 The hotel lobby is on the 25th floor (I'm on 18) and has a nice balcony facing the Port of Miami... I'll be able to catch a glimpse of the Bliss from here tomorrow morning. And a cool Marilyn Monroe picture in the lobby. I'm about to start walking towards the metro mover and get this party started at my first happy hour destination... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
