2 trips this last month.

Spent a weekend in Albufeira in Portugal earlier in June.

The spent the last 8 days of June in Florida.

This consisted of 3 days in Orlando, including a day at Disney’s magic kingdom.

Then 4 days in Lauderdale by the Sea, which is next to Fort Lauderdale.  We were the only people at this small hotel very close to the beach. We were the only one’s at the hotel so had the place and the pool to ourselves.

We spend at day at the Everglades safari park, which mainly involved taking an airboat ride and looking at some Aligators.

We finally drove down to Miami for 1 night and stayed at the Ritz Carlton.  Very posh hotel, with it’s own private part of the beach.

Finally, a long drive back to Orlando to drop the rental car off, and back to blighty Virgin Atlantic Premium Economy.

With the advent of infrastructure as a service, suddenly anyone can soon up a VM. Is easy to forget why you employ those people that take care of your on premises kit, and assume everything in the cloud is rosy. It didn’t turn out that way for the guys at codespaces, who are now out of business. Interesting article here.
