The Oldies take Miami
So a month into my adventure and I'm feeling like a local already. Perfect timing then for the oldies to come and visit. In theory I'd be able to show them all the sights. The only problem is I've realised I'm already miami lazy. We could go into the new science museum that opened this week but then again there's a pool right downstairs.....you can see the dilemma.
Dad though is wise to me, so after him banging on about me using public transport more - we find ourselves on the metromover station ( which is right at my apartment building) heading towards midtown one sunny afternoon. The metromover is in fairness to it quite cool - it's free for a start - but it's also relatively pointless given it doesn't really go that far.....still anything for an easy life. It wasn't dad's fault that no trains came and we ended up in an uber after all......
That has been pretty much the only blip so far though to our mini holiday in Miami. We've discovered the shops, swum in the always gorgeous Caribbean and been doing our best to beat Gilly and Tina in the weekly fitbit scores. We've enjoyed burgers in my neighbourhood cafe Friends, had breakfast at News Cafe on Ocean Drive - and spent lazy mornings poolside.
Next stop Charleston, it's fair to say I'm looking forward to getting back to Miami in a few days. I've fallen in love with this sunny, fun city - my ego even got a boost yesterday when I was ID'd for buying beers in the supermarket. Beachside living works for me 😀
We drank: Friends cafe in Brickell
We breakfasted: News Cafe, Ocean Drive - good people watching
We dined: American Harvest in Brickell City Centre, Bocce in Midtown - a polpo style Italian - gorgeous
