Miami

April 9, 2019 – Miami

Lothar had to travel to Miami for work, so we both went!

Around the hotel…

It was super windy out on the hotel deck, but it sure was beautifully lit up at night.

The breakfast place downstairs. For some reason my eyes were super swolen when I woke up. That’s me opening my eyes absolutely as wide as I can!!

When we got out and about, we discovered that gay pride day was going on! Boy was it vibrant and crazy! I guess I fit right in with my bright red and purple hair! 🙂 We also had a nice walk along the beach.

Of course we checked out the big beachwear stores.

While Lothar was at work, I did some exploring on my own, and had a wonderful lunch along the harbour.

And of course there was the work dinner. The memorable thing was that one guy ordered the entire tommahawk steak. It was amazing, but tons was left over. Surprise, surprise!

Lighthouse

March 7, 2019 – Bermuda

We took an outing to the lighthouse in Southampton. Boy was it ever windy up there!

In the gift shop, I wrote L + S on this t-shirt and for a moment Lothar thought it was made just for us! It was a great laugh.

We hiked a bit and climed out on the cliffs afterward. One of my favourite things to do in Bermuda in winter!

Canada with Lex

February 25, 2019 – Canada

Our first trip to Canada together! Of course, we had to go to St. Veronus and have some Belgian beer. And of course some nice dinners at home too.

We had a fun game night with all of us. The kitchen table actually got cleared for it!!

Of course, I also played lots of Subnautica with Simon. He had made me this memento to take home!

We got to watch a slab of ice slowly slide off the workshop roof.

The frozen over lake and lift locks.

We had some great outings too, like skating, dinner out all together, and even a magic show!

Even getting back to the airport was an adventure. There was a huge blizzard that was actually closing down roads ahead of us. We used Waze, and had to veer well off the 115, taking smaller roads to work around the closures and finally make it down to the 401. Wow!

It was still snowing as our plane was preparing to leave, but the flight home was smooth in the end.
