“Beep beep beep” said my alarm. It was 3:00a, time to get up and head to the airport and catch an early morning flight to Miami. I don’t think I ever fully woke up on the way to the airport, going through security or even boarding the plane. I have a hazy recollection of taking off just as the sun was rising over San Francisco and before I knew it we were over the Gulf of Mexico, almost to Florida. But the good thing about waking up so early is that this means I get into Miami early in the day, even with the 3 hour time change.

The weather down here is awesome! I was dreading the wave of humid and hot that I’ve associated with Florida, but was quite happy when I stepped out of the airport and could still breathe! Florida is my old stomping grounds, where I spent most of my early years (in Gainesville to be exact). So I’ll always have a soft spot for this state. A Grammy Tour concert is totally an excuse worth making the trip out here.

Speaking of the concert, I hope everyone’s got their tickets! New York is a tough act to follow on the tour, but I’m sure it will be fun tonight. Looking forward to seeing all of you there. If you see me, come up and say hi!

(No that’s not actually a picture of Miami from the plane, it was just the first bit of land we saw after flying over the Gulf of Mexico)
