Back in Miami

Well, after the long drive to Houston, through Dallas and back, I am in Miami again. I put close to 3000 miles (miles, not kilometres) on the rental I had, in 6 days. Not bad, not bad. It was nice to be able to drive through Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, it's really nice down there. The thing that amazed me the most was the amount of traffic on the Interstate everywhere you were. It was a constant game of trying to pass people while trying to get out of others' way, and it rarely let up.

Houston was great, visited some friends and spent time just relaxing. After the short hop to Dallas, it was again great to see some familiar faces and get together. Dallas is a city I will definitely visit again.

In Miami, I again haven't been doing much, just enjoying the sun, and have myself booked in to fly to New York tomorrow at about 3. From there I am not too sure what is going on. NYC is expensive, and right now I only have a place to stay until Friday, then I have nowhere. It doesn't help the fact that the 4th of July is approaching, and travelers who are getting in the city early are already booking things up. I had hoped to get to Ottawa, but flights aren't cheap.

I am looking forward to New York, so much to do, so little time...
