SOUTH BEACH MIAMI

Want to feel old - visit South Beach in Miami. Rick and I recently visited South Beach the first week of April and  soon realized it was "Spring Break" for thousands of college students.  The streets were quiet and empty in the morning hours but after 5pm, it's a whole different world!! The bars were full, the streets were full, the restaurants were full...all until 5am when all goes back to being quiet and calm -- empty streets, beautiful sunrises, animals in the park....  At night, the music was so loud that even earplugs didn't help.  When still trying to fall asleep at 3am with music blasting and streets full of young college kids, I realized that I am just too old for South Beach...

We stayed at the Breakwater which was across the street from an Art Deco store and the beach.  There was also a small park.  I went out early Sunday morning and was able to catch the sunrise as well as some friends -- the green parrots that were plentiful around our hotel and the squirrel that was in the park.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.
