Richard and I took a long weekend trip to Miami for our friends' Oreste and Kevin's wedding in November. We only had 3 days, but we filled them up.
We spent the first day enjoying the drive down to Miami on the coast, then spent the afternoon sunning on Miami Beach. We were the least tan folks around- not many Oregonians on the beach. On Saturday, we enjoyed a beautiful wedding ceremony and a very fun reception, met Kevin and Oreste's friends and family and ate wonderful food.
After the reception we decided that we could make it for a late dinner in the Florida keys, so we got changed and drove south for a waterside dinner and key lime pie.
On Sunday morning we met up with the wedding party for a Cuban buffet breakfast, then drove west and quickly explored the Everglades. We took an air boat ride into the swamp, and found a few alligators and lots of amazing birds. Unfortunately we ran out of time for Richard to do any gator wrestling. Then had to get back up to the airport in order to make our flight and get home to the boys. We need to get the boys back to Florida for more fun next year.
