there's me
sunset over dowtownearly start as we head down to one of my favourite places on earth ... fisher island.
coming off the highway, you pop onto a ferry and sail for 5 minutes to this island paradise ... that is home to the rich & famous of miami and is home to the hotel & resort.
was originally home to karl fisher (developer of south beach) who swapped it for a mega-yacht with the vanderbilt family. the vanderbilt familt used it as a winter home until it was sold to the present owners who have built luxury homes there ...
the old family house is now the base for the 45 all suite hotel ... run by very dear old friend heiko dobrikow ... we laughed, chatted and sadly did NOT play golf, as the course is re-opening on december 15th ...
i have had so much fun on fisher ... i can't wait to go back!
then we headed out to opa-locka airport - 30 minutes from the setai. here i had a real flying lesson with a company called cirrus that makes the best selling single propeller plane in the us. i don't want to give much away ... as the show will have a large feature. all i will say is that along with my pilot - adam hahn & other pilot carroll leboeuf - we had a FABULOUS time ... was it safe? of yes - its the only plane that has a parachute on it if you get into trouble ... parachutes ...hmmmm....
last night at the magnificent setai ...
