Fun In Miami- Part 1

Last week was a week of R&R for me and my family.  Tai and I treated my mom, dad and sister with a trip to Miami.

Here we are waiting for our plane and having some breakfast at the Detroit Airport.

We decided to spend most of our time on the Miami beaches so we decided to stay in a beachfront hotel on Miami Beach.  It was great waking up to a view of palm tries beach and blue ocean.

This is the view from our hotel room balcony.

Here’s a shot of the beach up close from the boardwalk.

I took this picture right after we got to the hotel, that’s why I’m in jeans, no sunscreen on.  The sun was so strong I burned my shoulders pretty quickly.

That same day me, Tai and my dad decided to go visit the South Beach area, see the nightlife and get some food.  Mom and sis were so tired from traveling they were asleep by 6pm.

We were lucky because it was a Sunday and South Beach was crazy busy.  I even ended with a python around my neck and a parrot on my hand…

I thought the python was cool, but I was really nervous about having that giant bird on my head…

What if it took a dump on my head?…

Luckily that did not happen

After seeing the sites and sounds of South Beach we had some food and drinks…

Actually it was one drink, a giant Mojito.

After dinner we walked around some more.  Stumbled upon some amazing stores and art galleries.  However we were tired and went to bed early so that we could get rested for another exciting day in Miami.

I’ll tell you more of our adventures in Miami in my second installment of “Fun In Miami.”

Till then
