Rare Jamman54 Posted January 31 Author #101 Share Posted January 31 As we passed the Spazio Italian Bistro, I noticed that the bar was open, so I decided to hole up here until Hooters opened….. Patti continued walking along the beach…… Patti passes Bubba Gump’s…… To be continued…… 20 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted January 31 Author #103 Share Posted January 31 At 11am I made my move over to Hooters while Patti continued her walk. She would also spend some time browsing the various shops on the strip….. Patti joined me at Hooters around 12:30pm. What a nice view from up here….. It’s time for another round of drinks. Patti is having a Malibu bay breeze, while I’m drinking Blue Moon……. We order some boneless wings and fries for lunch…… About this time we get a text from Pat saying that they would be going on the cruise! Pat talked to her father’s doctor and he assured her that her father was going to be fine, and to go on the cruise. Her father’s wife would look after him while they were away. They had to pack and then they would be on their way. They are also staying at the Springhill Suites, so we will see them when they get here. ETA will be around 7pm. Our prayers have been answered!!! We left Hooters around 2pm, just as the skies clouded up and it appeared it may rain….. We’re going up and over the bridge again passing the ships at Port Everglades….. To be continued…… 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jamman54 Posted January 31 Author #104 Share Posted January 31 We stopped to gas the car up for tomorrow, and then made our way back to the hotel. Patti took a short trip over to the shopping center across the street, while I worked on the pictures. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing. Pat & Jim arrived at the hotel around 7:15pm, and once they got settled into their room, it was time to get some dinner. We wanted to go to Miller’s Ale House, but the wait for a table was crazy long. We settled on TGIF’s and were seated almost immediately. Here are Pat & Jim (Webecruzen) finally getting a chance to relax….. And here we are….. Dinner service was really slow but we didn’t care. We spent the time catching up and having a “few” drinks. Back at the hotel, we’re all ready to retire for the night, except for Patti, who was taking some late night pictures of the breakfast area and the lobby. These areas had been remodeled since we were last here in April….. Here are a few views of the Market by the Front Desk….. Patti’s checking out the Exercise Room…… Patti returns to the room and we crash for the night. Coming up next: We board the Carnival Celebration, and the fun begins!! 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the lovely ladies working there are typically young enough to be my daughter or grand daughter. Keeping that in mind, they kinda become background noise. The reasonably priced beer, that they'll put a bag of ice in a pitcher to keep ice cold. The reasonably priced wings and other bar fare coupled with sports on TV keeps me coming back!! Now when they open Cooters for all us Sr citizens, you'll never get me out!! 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmyJA Posted February 1 #111 Share Posted February 1 (edited) Meanwhile in the Pacific Northwest on this fine Saturday morning I am boarding my flight to MIA four hours later than planned because for some reason the airline didn’t want anyone to fly an airplane with blow-out doors.

AmyJA Posted February 1 #114 Share Posted February 1 By the time I get into Miami, Pam my roomie is out and about on the town. So, I ask the front desk person where would be a good place to eat. This place was legit. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
