Upon our descent into Miami, our pilot announced that things might get a little bumpy; there were several storms in the area. As soon as he announced that, we felt like our plane had entered into a war zone, it was really very violent, but fortunately, it only lasted about 2 minutes. That was really very scary, my husband wasn’t bothered at all.

When we landed, the caught the shuttle bus to our hotel, but we were right in the middle of a deluge of rain. My husband was preparing himself for the conditions, by heaving our bags up and over the back seat of the vehicle, so we wouldn’t have to go around to the back of the van to get our bags. I but on my rain poncho. We were ready for wet Florida, but as the driver pulled up to our hotel, the entrance was covered! We didn’t have to go through all that rigamarole. We had booked the hotel online and we knew it would be a nice place to stay but we had no idea that it would be luxurious. We emerged from the shuttle van feeling that we over did it with the rain gear.

Miami is the last stepping stone for our month long travels through the US. Our next stop is South America. The reason why we made Miami our last stop, was for the art, and we don’t mean Art Deco, but for body art. There’s this TV show called Miami Ink, the show is about a tattoo studio and their clients. We just love the stories that go behind the reason for getting tattoos. Plus, we both decided that this place would be the first place for us to get our first tattoos. We came up with a design that captured our month away and will encompass our most memorable experiences. I’ve sketched it out, adding things and taking away other things, and my husband liked it. So, next time you see us, we will both have matching tattoos on our backside!
