From Palm Trees to a Parade

We just made it home from a mini vacation in Miami Beach and all I have to say is...
DAMN IT'S COLD! It was around 85 every day in Miami and we both have tan lines to prove it. We had a relaxing time just hanging out on the beach during the day, people watching, and trying a few new restaurants at night but man, we missed Denzel! It was the first time we boarded him and even though we took a tour of the facility - ah, twice - we still worried. But he was fine. Dirty face and stinky fur, but fine. In a couple of days, we are leaving for New York. G has always wanted to see the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, so while taking a morning stroll on the beach last week, we decided to just do it. Spontaneous plans are the best, right? Denzel is coming with us but it's already a given that he will have to stay in the hotel during the parade. Now, the most important thing is to find a restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner...

I hope u had a good time in Miami Beach, do you have any recommendation for new restaurants?

I was a bit worried about the temperatures there looking at www.wetteronline.de but it seems like it is getting warmer again. Hopefully, because on this coming Wednesday my niece and I will be flying there for some fun days.

Have a great time in NY.

Greetings from a cold snowy Germany

Hallo Anja*

What city will you be visiting?

In Miami, we had a fantastic dinner at Enso - 433 Lincoln Rd and excellent sushi at Maiko Sushi - 1255 Washington Ave. Enjoy!

We will be staying at the Palms in Miami Beach. Since we will only be there for 8 days, we will not do much travelling around.

So, the two restaurants in Miami you mentioned will already be a great help.

Thanks a lot.
