We're in Miami!
My family has never been very traditional, quite the contrary, so when the opportunity of going to Florida for Christmas came up we pursued it. We spent a few days in Naples which is a lovely town just under 2 hours away from Miami. It's your typical Florida town, the main street lined with palm trees leading to beautiful beaches. Even in the middle of the winter, it never gets that cold, which as Canadians we were thrilled about! We then headed back to Miami to spend a few days there before heading back to Toronto. I loved Miami, the city is vibrant and has a Latin flavor with people coming from all over South America.
On the way from Naples to Miami we crossed the Everglades National Park, which has a unique ecosystem and is filled with alligators!
In Miami we spent time in South Beach soaking in as much sun as we could knowing that in a few short days we'd be back to Canadian winter. We also walked through Wynnwood, which is a neighborhood in Miami filled with street art and graffiti, definitely recommend a visit if you happen to be in Miami!!
Happy Holidays and New Year!
