I have lived in Miami for 16 months now… and I feel that I have become one of “them”. One of those people who settle in to their home town and don’t explore it or it’s surrounds. Often we so easily forget the wonders we are surrounded by until someone comes to town to visit.
My back balance and an inpending lobg weekend has prompted me to remember to keep being a tourist where ever I am! On that note, it’s time… my Miami to do list. If you are reading this and you are a fellow Floridian (or planning a visit) let me know so we can explore together.
