Here's another option for those going to (or considering) the SOAPA Meeting: a two-day side trip to the Bahamas on the way down to Key West. To do this, you'd have to come into Miami on Sunday afternoon, instead of Tuesday afternoon.
I will pick-up at TMB and MIA (for those coming in commercial) on Sunday afternoon, May 15. On Monday morning we'll review preparations and procedures for over-water and international flights and depart from TMB. It's a one-hour flight over turqoise waters to a small Bahamian out-island whose beaches are among the most beautiful in the world. We've got a relaxed schedule penciled in for Monday and for Tuesday morning, and we'll be staying at beachfront townhouses (around $75 per person). After lunch on Tuesday we depart for TMB to catch up with those just coming into Miami.
For those considering this side-trip, I have posted a web page with additional information, including trip details and links to pictures. Please go to
