Genes Back on the rock for 24 hours and I hope our daughter has inherited my travelling genes as we go back to the airport this evening to fly home to the UK for a week of family and friends hopping showing her off.

Unexpectedly we spent another night in Miami's South Beach after Bermuda airport was closed Thursday due to 90mph hurricane force gales. It has been a shitty travel week all around North America with 13,000 flights cancelled and of course the UK has seen yet more snow as did our daughter for the first ever time in Philadelphia last weekend (see photo).

Miami work-wise was good, a typical blur of long days hampered by long nights. Staggering in at 5am Thursday morning waking a baby and a bemused other half was not big or clever and it made my 7.30am presentation a little bit of a struggle. Preparation was never my strong suit!

On our extra day Friday we took a look around downtown Coral Gables which calls for another visit one day and we stopped for a wonderful lunch in Houstons.

We land at Gatwick tomorrow morning and begin what will doubtless be a knackering week. Hopefully Monday night I can convince my underwhelmed-other-half's brother-in-law to switch Sky Sports I on, whilst the following Saturday my son and I will be at the Yeovil game and there will be plenty to do in between.  ¶ 02:05
