Res Ipsa Loquitur: Miami Trip (Day #5)

This is sad but this post is for August 14th, our last day in Miami (I'm only like 3 weeks late--no biggie).

This day started like the others, with amazing breakfast-- I went all out (the smoked Salmon was so good). Then Sadiah and I decided to go shopping for souvenirs. Our first attempt was a total bust and it sucked because we went out of our way to go there and it was the most shadiest place ever. We decided we would go back to the Flea Market we had gone earlier to get some more cute rings.

Salmon + eggs + cheese + potatoes

We went back to hotel, grabbed our stuff and went to the Opa Locka Hialeah Flea Market. We had initially thought we would go to the flea market, get our stuff and then go to Hollywood Beach, but we were mistaken. After we were done shopping, we barely had enough time (although at that time we thought we had plenty) to get some food before it was time to go to the airport.

Beautiful rings--I got greedy and decided to keep the first one for myself

We returned our rental and began walking towards our terminal. With our luck, the rental place was at the polar opposite of where our terminal was (the airport was "u" shaped, so we had to go all the way around). We printed our board passed and stood in the long line for security. We had food with us and wasn't sure if we could take it so we quickly ate one steak and cheese and decided to risk taking the gyro on board (we were allowed to take food onto the plane). Finally after passing security there were maybe 2/3 minutes left for boarding so we ran, literally ran, to our terminal. The terminal was empty and the person there told us if we had been another minute late, we would have missed the flight. This is the view we almost missed.
