December 5-8th, 2019, I visited Miami Beach for the Scope<\/a> and Art Basel art fairs. I stayed at the El Paseo Hotel (clean, cozy, homey) on Espa\u00f1ola Way. I got breakfast from a local bakery, and dinner from 5 Guys. When not at the art fairs, I enjoyed the beach and exploring the town. I recommend it, but definitely bring someone with you to enjoy it with.<\/p>\n

Sunrise, Lummus Park.<\/h2>\n

Sunrise, palm trees, a big beach with coral & shells to beach comb, swimmable & crystal clear water: what more can you ask for? Miami Nice (yeah, I said it).<\/p>\n

A Lifeguard Station<\/h2>\n

The lifeguard stations are a trademark of South Beach. They come in different shapes and sizes, but they’re all pink.<\/p>\n

Espa\u00f1ola Way<\/h2>\n

Where my hotel El Paseo is. Lots of restaurants & a gelato shop.<\/p>\n

Mannequins in the Surf Style window<\/h2>\n

There is a lot of souvenir & bathing suit shops in town. \u00a0The mannequins accurately reflect the local visitors of South Beach. Nearly everyone looks like a model — I felt like an ogre next to them (but also, I do not care).<\/p>\n

Ocean Drive Bars, Hotels & Restaurants at night<\/h2>\n

Each bar, hotel & restaurant in the Art Deco district was illuminated with a different color of light: orange, green, purple, blue, and red — like a pack of colored crayons. The hum of celebrating people, dance music, and the roar of supercars filled the air.<\/p>\n

\"Ocean<\/p>\n

And of course, there’s the Egg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not part of the photo set really, but this was the coffee\/library room from the El Paseo hotel circa December 5th, 2019.<\/p>\n
