Day Fourteen: Poolside at the Raleigh

It's nice to be back at my old stomping ground, the Raleigh.  I was just here for the week of New Years.  The hotel is classic.  Art deco, Miami Beach. Aside from the iPod dock and stereo, the room is the same as it was 60 years ago.

I'm sitting at the pool next to Tony, who came down here from LA for a little business and vacation.  He is a musician and composes music and jingles for advertisements.  I ask him for an example of his work.  "Easy breezy beautiful cover girl," he tells me.  He was in a band before his current profession and he traveled across the country many times.  

I meet Dan, Mimi, Bob and Keith for drinks at the Setai pool bar and Club Laz before calling it an early night.
