128| GIRL’S TRIP PART ONE
Holà! Happy Tuesday! Welcome back to el blog! ! Although its rainy and the sun is hiding, I still feel like it’s going to be a great day. I wish the same for you and yours.
Now, let’s jump into today’s post. Sometime in October, I receive a text message from one of my closest friends. We call her ”Cat” for short. She messaged to ask if I’m up for a little girls trip to Miami in January? And I said of course! Within days the trip was booked and paid for. My girl was not playing! It would be for her birthday and to celebrate other personal milestones. Of course I needed and wanted to be there for her. Our other close friend already lives in Florida and would meet us in Miami. She had also invited two of her childhood friends that I got the pleasure of meeting for the first time during the trip. Okay, let’s jump right in…
I wanted to travel light. And did not want to have to pack hair products, or worry about styling my hair. The water in Florida tends to be on the hard side and my hair does not like it.
I picked up Cat at her house around 1:30 AM. I drove us to the airport. A few days before the trip, Cat told me that one of her friends was not going to make it to the trip. I had a feeling that it would work out. Anyway, we get to the airport and her friend was there! She surprised us. We will call her Car for short.
There were no delays, and our flight was a smooth one. Thankful!

We arrived early in that morning. Our check in wasn’t until late afternoon. The other girls would arrive later on, so we decided to grab something to eat.
I got a mimosa and vegan pancakes.
After breakfast we walked around and then made our way to Bayfront Park. We were tired and wanted to sit and just enjoy the views. At this point Alex had already landed and we decided that this would be a good meet up point.
I love palm trees. You will see a lot of them lol.
We met up with Alex and walked around the shopping center that’s at the park, and eventually got something to eat. I didn’t get any pictures during this time, but I did get a lot of video footage. I will share that video soon.
I got a Pina colada (delicious) and a Mojito (bleh!) I got an appetizer to eat. This place was not very vegan friendly.
We arrived at the Airbnb and of course I noticed the angel numbers!
We all got ready for dinner.
Meet Alex! Alex, Cat and I worked together for a few years. We became sisters. It’s funny because we’d crossed each other’s paths for a long time. I worked for a pregnancy center for several years and Id often call their job to schedule appointments for my clients. We had just never met in person, until I interviewed there their job. It was great to put faces to the names and voices that I’d known for years!
It was a cold few nights, but this night was the coldest for me. Im glad I took clothing with long sleeves.

I enjoyed the food. The drink was perfection!
Again, most of the footage that I have from this day are in video format. But it was a really, really fun day, and we all clicked like long time friends.
I’ll share more in the next one.
XO, Cin.
