We didn’t get up too early as we were out late the night before. We had managed to extend checkout for one of the rooms so left all our bags there as we headed out for breakfast.

We met Mark and Jim at a lovely Cuban restaurant and I filled up on black beans, rice, with avocado and eggs.

After breakfast we revisted Miami Ink as we wanted to have a look inside.

From here we headed down to the Art Deco Centre. On the way we passed a lovely art deco house that is owned by Versace.

There are some really nice buildings down Ocean Drive. Thos is down to a lady called Barbara Baer Captiman. In 1979, under her leadership, the Miami Beach Architectural District became the first urban 20th century historic district to gain registration on the National Register of Historic Places. Barbara was known to stand in front of bulldozers to protect the art deco buildings and over 800 art deco buildings remain as a testament to her defiance. The drab run-down hotels on Ocean Drive were revitalised and painted in pastel colours.

Once we got back to the hotel we quickly got changed, said goodbye to Mark and Jim and took an Uber to the airport.

Once we had checked in and done a bit of dropping, we relaxed with a drink as our flight was delayed.

There was a guy sitting near us who was taking his little dog on a flight.

We landed in Lisbon around one and a quarter hours later than we should have. This meant I had to run to the gate to get my connecting flight from Lisbon to Gatwick. I made it but unfortunately my bag didn’t.

There was a lovely sunset the night I got home.
