Sun, beach and sky-high prices: Miami through the eyes of a tourist

Seagulls, the sun, the sea, the beach, great cocktails, cool nightclubs, exorbitant prices and people waking up only after dinner - this is real Miami.

Having burned well in the sun, we realized that another day at the beach could be dangerous for us. Besides, we, as true travelers, give sights! Therefore, we rented a car and went to study everything in the area.

Since I really love animals, we decided to start with the zoo. I have seen enough photos of how everyone feeds giraffes right from their hands, and I also wanted to do it.

 

 

For some reason, we did not take the so-called “rickshaw” at the entrance, but went on foot. What then very much regretted. The zoo is so huge that you need to spend a good half of the day.

 

 

And now - giraffes. I see this sign, run up to the fence and freeze in place ... "They closed 5 minutes ago." Ahhh !!! Honestly, so upset, I don't remember myself. I just dreamed of feeding them ...

 

Very sad, I asked to go to Coral Castle. I was told the touching story of the creation of this castle, and I really wanted to look at it. And the story goes like this: “A poor man from Latvia was engaged to a girl from a rich family. On the night before the wedding, she broke off the engagement because her father was against it. After that, the guy went to the USA and built a “coral castle” there for his beloved. He invited her several times to come to this castle, but she always refused him. She didn’t even come at the age of 80 (many years after the death of the former groom). ”
Если честно, то я ожидала увидеть какой-то красивый дом из кораллов, но когда мы приехали туда, то увидели такой себе манюсенький домик с двориком — и все.

 

Но мое разочарование было объяснимо, т. к. жираф разбил мне сердце. Поэтому, включив музыку погромче, мы отправились назад в Майами. А там взяли полюбившиеся нам коктейли — и всю грусть как рукой сняло.

 

Did you know that Miami used to be called the "Magic City"? I didn’t know either, until I went on a tour with Duck tour. They only called him that because in 100 years he was able to grow from a thousand people to 3 millions.

 

Duck tour — это экскурсия, которая длится 3 или 4 часа. Вы садитесь в автобус, который возит вас по городу, и вам рассказывают о достопримечательностях. Но в какой-то момент ваш «чудо-автобус» превращается в катер — и вы плывете по заводи между Майами и Майами-Бич. Это так круто, что просто словами не передать.

 

Но самым интересным было завершение тура: не доехав кварталов 5 до конечной точки, наш автобус просто снес дверь припаркованному автомобилю — «снес» в прямом смысле слова. Жалко было не водителя (он ведь, когда выползал из машины, даже стоять на ногах с трудом мог, перебрал малость). А вот «Ауди»… Она была такая красивая… Но уже без двери. ?

 

But, despite the incident, I got great pleasure from this tour. And they looked at the city, and swam along the backwater, and saw super-steep villas of stars - beauty.
