Moon (and other things) Over (and under, in, around, etc.) Miami

Seeing as the trip to Miami ended a couple of week ago, one might think I would have written about it sooner. Alas, much can happen in short time. Currently there is a kitchen being remodeled. So yeah, there's that little bit of distraction. Anyway, Miami...

Critical Mass, say I. Since these bike rides take place in many major cities throughout the world, it should be no surprise Miami holds one in their fair city. What a great way to take it all in- from Little Havana to Coral Gables and several points in between, we rode for about sixteen miles under an almost full moon.



Along the ride I made two new friends (Dave and Gerry) who were kind enough to allow my Midwestern ignorance of the surrounding area fall by the wayside and indulge my questions about where in the heck we were from time to time.

It rains everyday in Miami.



Dammit. It was like this the majority of the time.

On a previous visit, JP and I hit this place called Elbo Room in Ft. Lauderdale. It's a small bar with a pulse. There was only one day that it actually rained for a long time and this was the day. Then, a couple hours before sunset, the rain stopped and made everyone gay.



On our last day we set out for Key West. The scene is worth a visit if you like walking around town with a beer in your hand. I do. Don't forget to catch a sunset off the pier side. It gives everyone a reason to cheer and hoist a Mojito, if you like that kind of thing. I do.
