Before I talk about the first day in Miami, let me first express the unsatisfactory journey to Florida. we were all in agreement that the spirit airline was the cheapest airline to Florida, we can also agree that the flight was terrible. Out of all the airlines I've been on I can say that spirit is the noisiest airline of them all, it makes such awful noises when taking off and mind you this is after waiting for about 30 minutes for maintenance to repair the plane AFTER we all boarded.
Let me explain this better!!
Our flight was set to take off at 12:15 am, we arrived at the airport around 10:30, checked in, boarded the plane at 11:45 and then proceeded to wait for takeoff. The pilot now announced that they were having technical difficulties and the flight will take a few minutes before taking off. A few minutes turned into 30 minutes accompanied with uncomfortable annoying yelling and crying of kids. 30 minutes later, we finally took off.
This was my first time taking the spirit airline and I can say this will be my last, on top of the delay, the ride was not a smooth one, the chairs were uncomfortable, it was so difficult to sleep, it was just horrible.
We landed at Fort Lauderdale, picked up the car rental and drove down into Miami Gardens where we rented a house for a week. So far today, we went food shopping (grocery shopping), and went out to eat. The food has been the highlight of the whole day and for a very good reason. The restaurant is called Sheri Restaurant. This restaurant is an African joint located right off of NW 27th ave in Miami Gardens. The food reminded me of the Mama Put joints in Nigeria, it was on point. I personally ordered Bitter leaf soup and pounded yam but the table was lined up with different styles of Egusi soup, pepper soup, fried plantains and most importantly Suya....... and all this for breakfast at 9:55 am.
It was a deadly Morning!!
