Miami is one of my fav places to vacation. I'm a regular in the MIA, they know me by name. (Well, not exactly). lol. This particular trip was a special occasion. It's Aunt Lynn's 50 birthday!! Whoop Whoop. Let me give you a little background. In all of her 50 years on this green earth, Aunt Lynn has never been on a plane or traveled outside of Baltimore. The furthest she has traveled was to North Carolina to visit family. My sis and I convinced her that she has to go BIG for her 50th Bday, especially since she has never experienced a plane ride. So, we went into Miami planning mode! Four of my other aunts decided to join us on the trip (Aunt Peggy, Vonnie, Neecy and Darlene). And, I cant forget about my lil sister Riel.
Aunt Lynn was so awkward going thru security check....I think I saw her boarding pass floating down the security belt! lol. She threw everything. lol. I was for certain that we were in for a long yet eventful weekend.
As we are waiting in the seating area to depart for our trip. Aunt Lynn asked an TSA employee if there was an area for her to smoke?? Really Aunt Lynn?? In an airport?? The woman replied "No, you should quit smoking, lmao
Aunt Lynn right before take off. She's smiling and laughing now. Lets just say - that smile turned into a frown in a matter of minutes as the plane took off. I think at one point, she screamed as the plane elevated. I quietly turned around in my seat as if I didn't know who she was. #EMBARRASSED...lol
The view up here!! Ahhhh...Its so refreshing!
We finally touched down in MIA!!!
We made our way to the hotel bar for some
cocktails while we waited for our rooms.
After we dropped our bags off in the room...We hit the town.
But, 1st we grabbed a bite to eat at Jerry's Famous Deli.
The breakfast food was delicious!

Next, we walked up the strip for a little sight seeing. Some pics in front of the famous Versace house. Did you know that Gianni Versace purchased this building in 1992. This home is the location of Versace's un-timely death in 1997. It is now called Casa Casuarina and converted into an exclusive members only club.
A cup at Wet Willies...Call me a Cab!!!
After our 1st day out on the town.
We made our way back to the hotel to
get doll'd up and hit the club!
1st we decided to hit up a bar for some 2 for 1 drink specials. Which, happen to be directly across the street from The Mansion (our destination for the night). And, besides it was early.... so we started a game of pool. Keep in mind, none of us knew how to play except for Riel.

| Amateur! lol |
After, a few games of pool. Aunt Neecy and Lynn suggested that the girls and I go to the club as a trio. And, they would just take in the sights outside. We all decided to hit up The Mansion. The aunties weren't thrilled with the crowd, and the line was around the corner. Initially, we all were hesitant about Mansion because of the looooong line. I DON'T DO LINES!!! I hate standing in a line to get in the club. So, the bouncer from the previous bar, claimed he had some connects and he could get us in. It took him about 10 minutes to make a few moves and speak with a few people. But, low and behold, he got us in!!!
So no line for US! See, what perks you get when your beautiful. lol *wink*
Only in Miami......
Acrobats and a big azz Panda bear on stage.
It was interesting, yet Fabulous!!!
We hit the beach the next day!
With NO SUN! Ugh!
I was highly agitated with the weather.
I was totally looking forward to getting a tan.
I have a ton of pictures to post concluding our mini vaca.
So stay tuned for my next post. I will post the remainder of the pics.
Smooches : )
