After breakfast, the boys went to the pool for an hour before the day’s big activity. Speedboat Tour!

We woke up at a normal time though it has been a night of restless sleep. We had heard a lot of noise that we initially thought was either construction, people moving furniture, or thunder.

Back up in the room, once the boys were on their Zoom calls, I took advantage of my "day off" by going for a run. Exploring the Beach Path In… Continue reading Miami 2021: Diary – Day 2 →

We woke up just before our alarm went off and tried to organize things for the day. We first tried to get the kids Chromebooks connected to the hotel internet. To my surprise I couldn't get either one to connect. It would connect to the network but wouldn't bring up the registration page. I ended… Continue reading Miami 2021: Diary – Day 1 →

We were leaving on a Wednesday at 5pm which mean we needed to be at the airport around 3:00. The boys had a short day of school so they would be done at noon, but my wife and I both had full days of work and meetings. Timing the Airport We both had meetings around… Continue reading Miami 2021: Diary – Day 0 →
