There's a burger place a couple of blocks away, but their burgers average $10... We aren't in a cheap part of the world, Jenna...

I'm sure there will be places nearby, and when it comes right down to it, if we can't figure it out ourselves, there is always the hotel concierge who we can ask for guidance. In fact I just may try to do that in advance so we can have some firm plans.

(The quotes about the lounge that I posted were found via a Google search for Hemisphere Lounge Miami to see if there was any additional info...)

ten dollar burgers after flying all day and munching on granola bars sounds down right tasty to me, would rather eat something like that then MacD's.

 

I haven't been able to find the hours, so I just called the burger place - Thursdays they open at 11AM and close at 4AM

They are about two blocks south of the hotel per the maps.

Here's a reference:

It's not Emerils, but at least it's open whenever we get there...

I'm looking at other things in the area, too.
(http://www.miamibeach411.com/maps/in...ype=Restaurant

(SR A1A is Collins Ave. and the hotel is at 16th and Collins. Cheeseburger Baby is at 15th and Washington - that's one block west and one block south...)

Maybe we can all meet in the lobby then hike down for a burger? I'm in for that/ :D



Tomas

P.S. At least some of us need to swap cell phone numbers so we can coordinate and get together while we are there. My cellphone will be on my hip, and turned on while I'm there: (253) PM-FOR-#. (Yes, it will work just fine there, and most folks calling from another cellphone will have no problem reaching me - if you call from a hotel phone, however, it is a long distance call even if I am 3 feet from you...)

Tomas, I saved your cell # in my phone. Mine is 360-PM-FOR-# and will not be on my hip but rather turned on and in my pocket, lol.

Perhaps everybody could migrate down to the burger place, starting around 9:30-10:00pm? We could make sure we mention "CHEESEBURGER BABY" enough times that knowing where to go comes second nature... instinct if you will... by December 14th.

 

I say migrate, only because waiting for so many people with so many different flight arrivals that could be delayed, ain't my thing, lol. I rather spend some time walking the beach in the dark and then know that there will be at least some people at the burger place when I get there. You call can meet if you want, lol.

 

(I pulled both of our numbers from the posts - thought better of it. Not that good to post it openly. Hope that's OK.)

I put your number in my phone - I already have a few of the others, too.

Tomas

 

No problemo and a good idea.

And now that I think about it... I suppose there could be a set time for meeting up in the lobby, late or delayed flights or not. Duh. I'm not thinking too well right now.

 

I think I have Tomas' number from exposed still, in fact, I know I have it.

 

My phone knows your phone, too, Robbie.

Tomas

 

I'll join you guys since my flight gets in before 8PM.

Meet at the hotel?

 

Hmmm. I may hit you guys up for this too. I believe i get in bout 630ish. Meet some new poeples.

 

bump for the new winners

 

So neolusions and I are the only ones on the AA 1220 flight that arrives in FL at 5pm?

 

I'm trying to get folks to post up their times over here:

https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=149686

so people can get together with those from all parts of the country who are arriving at near
enough the same time to share a ride to the hotel...

I need a lot more input, though...

Tomas

 

That's a good idea Tomas. Neolusions and are already planning to share a ride to the hotel since we're on the same flight.

And I'll add that you all blow for not being on our flight! (save your piddly excuses, lol) Oh well!

 

Since you are leaving Seattle later and arriving in Miami more than two hours earlier, I'd much rather be on your flights, but I appear to have Damned little control over that.

There is at least one other person (so far) arriving in your time window to share the ride with...

Tomas

 

Ahh, once your flight gets delayed in Chicago, we will all be in Miami at the same time anyways!

 

... right. Early on the 15th.

Tomas

 

ah.. think i'm tenativly on the same as you tomas.... sea>santa ana> DFW> miami....
but looking into getting that changed...

 

If you change it within 24 hours of the reservation first being made, it can often be done free - after that point, tough, most airlines charge $50 or $100 dollars per person to make the change...
