I recently spent a chill weekend in South Florida. The original intention was to make it to the Florida keys but the weather was not too good so We stayed in the Miami area.  The first night we stayed at the Hard Rock hotel and casino in Ft Lauderdale.  I have never beent o this casino but it is definatly realy good with the recent addition of Blackjack i was quite at home.  I had a good nite on the tables, and spend the early after noon in the pool there. From  there the next spot was South Beach, although it was drizzlin the strip was still pretty busy.  Definatly a great spot to get away for a weekend. Next Stop for me, VEGAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
