Bienvenido a Miami!
Palm Beach was wonderful and once again, it was hard to leave such a fun loving family. They are full of good energy. Big thanks to Carol, Mark, Kellie, Blaine, Ted and everyone else who made our stay so special. Hooray for the North Palm Posse!
We rode alongside mansions all day long. From West Palm, through Del Ray, Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale and into Miami, it was mansion city. Not to mention yachts, saw plenty of those too.
Getting into Miami, I noticed that we had entered the Latin world. Signs in Spanish, Meringue music blasting from cars and lots of ladies in high heels, why do Latinas love high heels so much? Fine by me.
After enjoying the scenery, it began to rain, and didn’t quit for two full hours. When I say rain, I mean intense tropical rain that doesn’t let up and instantly floods the roads. The riding was a little sketchy, especially in the Miami traffic. I had hoped that we were out of the rainy days but this storm blind sided us. Take a look at my poor little fingers, all pruned up.
After getting sufficiently drenched and plenty dirty, the sun decided to come out and save the day. Moments later, a gigantic rainbow appeared in the sky. How can I stay mad at the rain when it produces such beauty like this?
Now we are at the home of Lovedy and Guillermo. Lovedy is the sister of my friend Sarah, two small town country girls from North Carolina with big hearts and bigger accents. Hey Ya’ll! Anyway, they have a pool, and 5 minutes after getting to their home, I was in it, I obviously hadn’t had enough wetness for the day.
Tonight they took us to a Miami Heat game where I finally got to see just how big Shaq really is, even from high up in the third balcony the guy looks like a giant. I wonder how far he can ride a bike? Time to enjoy Miami.
haha your blog should read, two wheels, two legs, one pair of shorts, and about a million thumbs up. Looks nice down there hermano
