Sunday, November 10 dawned clear and a bit crisp for Southwest Florida.  It was a perfect football game day for the Royal Adventurers excursion to the Miami Dolphins game against the Buffalo Bills at Dolphins Stadium in Miami.  Adventurer leaders Joan and Marv McMahon had every detail planned, from morn until night.

Hot coffee and pastries were waiting as the Adventurers arrived for the 7:30 a.m. (!) boarding of the coach.  It was all hands on deck as tables chairs, and then the fixings for an elegant tailgate party were loaded in the cargo bays.  It was a tight fit, but with the help of our own Wade, and coach driver Mark, it all fit tightly.  The libations for the morning’s enjoyment were stocked in the rear of the bus.  As soon as we were on the road, Joan and her assistants made sure that everyone had the Mimosa, Bloody Mary or other beverage of choice.

Arriving at Dolphins Stadium in good time, the cargo was unloaded and chef-of-the-day Rick supervised many hands in putting on a fancy luncheon spread that was the envy of all around.  DELICIOUS!  We had plenty of time to socialize with fellow adventurers before heading to our terrific seats in the stadium.  Although the Dolphins played a good game, and it seemed for awhile they would win in our honor, in the end they increased their losing streak to 0-9.

We found our way back to our coach and it was on to the Macaroni Grill in Pembroke Pines for dinner.  We were quite a bit early and enjoyed special light pizzas while we waited for the tables (setting up for 48 was a challenge).  The food was hearty and delicious, and many enjoyed a good snooze on the ride home to RPYC.  Many thanks to Joan and Marv for taking care of all the details and making it another great Royal Adventure!
