a grand adventure

Two weeks ago, [livejournal.com profile] 2wanda and i traveled to see my family in Florida, which i hadn't seen since i moved to California in mid-1995, and therefore she'd never met.  On the way there, we stopped in Las Vegas for a couple of days to visit her dad; we managed to find a very nice Peruvian restaurant in Henderson.  Once we were in Miami, the weather was rather nice (and we managed to dodge a very rainy week back at home) until our day of departure, when the humidity tried to let us know it hadn't really gone anywhere.  We visited the Everglades, did the Fort Lauderdale water taxi tour (which covered a vast amount of wretched excess in houses and yachts), and saw as many of my family members as we could, and yes, i had my fill of Colombian and Cuban food, including an Oregon pinot named Cubanisimo (which, other than the name, was unremarkable).

It was a fun trip, and Ron's family were all very nice and welcoming. Gotta love Latino hospitality.
