Miami Beach Boardwalk
One of my favorite things to do after a hard days work is the put on my shorts, grab my ipod and take a jog along Miami Beach's beautiful boardwalk. Located right outside your Miami Beachfront Hotel , this boardwalk stretches for miles! Early evening is the perfect time for a jog or relaxing stroll as the heat of the day cools down and the sun begins to set. You'll enjoy spectacular ocean views and appreciate the beauty of our city. Not to mention that this is a fantastic and enjoyable way to walk of some of those extra vacation calories! Enjoy!

Weather News
It amazes me that we live here in a tourist paradise and all our TV channels want to do is scare you away! For the last two days, they have been blaring out alerts about a Tropical Storm and Tropicals Storm Warnings and I know of many people that have cancelled thier travel plans - well, surprise, surprise - the storm came and went and all we had was a little rain - not even any high winds to talk about. So next time you see the news of doom and gloom - do yourself a favor - call the hotel or airline directly and see what they advise - no-one will let you travel if you are in any danger and you may get the real story, rather than the hype! Bon Voyage!
