So here I am, getting off the plane standing on the stairway… And here it is -the first thing that makes you feel this city -its smell. It is the saulty smell of the ocean. It’s in the air, everywhere around. At that very moment I realize this is the joyful beginning of our vacation. And it seems that the fatigue of the twelve-hours flight is melting away.
The first thing that needs to be said is that Florida is the land of unique nature hot weather and tropic cyclones. It ‘s the city of permanent summer . Miami is an awesome place .Here one can enjoy ; sunbathing ,spectacular views ,promenades ,shopping, entertaining ,chilling out and clubbing.
It is a place for flossing. Everybody here shows off. They show off their naked torso ,show off their well-proportioned forms, the skaters show off ,the rollers show off, they show off clothes, money, glasses, hairstyle and especially CARS .The city of millionaires and billionaires ,where rich and famous hang out ,where there are crowds of curious tourists from all over the world, so as we are.;)
High rise hotels stretching in a chain on white sand washed by the Atlantic ocean. The endless beach and the ocean is the main point of interest in Miami. One will enjoy sitting there watching roughing, like white-horses waves coming to the sea shore. Water is pure ,warm and inviting. The beach with all those beach stands as in “Baywatch” .They wont let you drown even if you want to 😉
Ice gulls are the main inhabitants of Miami Beach . They walk on the sand fly above the water and they are not so bashful ,they are used to long-legged neighbors;)
Along the beach there is chain of different restaurants with the national cuisine neighboring with cheap bars, pubs and cafes such as Burger King and KFC .
Many supermarkets and barbershops are here with all other attributes of urban life. Some banners and signs written in Russian ,so you understand there are quite a lot of Russians around even if you haven’t heard the familiar talk. Some of restaurants are crowded, in some of them there are few people, others are closed and offered for sale or for rent –crisis. (Woe be to him! )
The most happening place in Miami is Ocean Drive. So there is a real drive. It is bohemian street built up with low-rise villas in art deco style . Between Art Deco street and the beach there is avenue with high palms .Tourists enjoy long promenades there.
The lights of ads and glamorous shop windows, restaurants and bars are waiting for hungry and queering for night life youngsters.
The tables of cafes and restaurants are arranged along the promenade park-way . You watch tourists dressed to the nines walking lazily here and there. Music sounds from everywhere .Somewhere it is alive. By the entrance of some cafes one can see dishes with lobsters decorated with all kinds of fish with mouth watering smell.
One more symbolic thing in Miami –their enormous Oceanic liners . There are many cruise ways through Miami. There is everything on liners; water parks, theatres, music halls, disco bars, sport gym ,swimming pool, even stores.
And here is the main tourist attraction – Disneyland in Orlando. Orlando (state of Florida, 350 km from Miami) – is a world capital of entertainment for children. The biggest Disneyland in the world ,amusement park — UNIVERSAL STUDIO, SEA WORLD ,BUSH GARDENS, Zoo, shows and African attractions ,everything is there .It is a fairy town.
Disneyland is a dream place for many people of all the ages. Overjoyed children are taking photos with Mickey and their favourite characters .And here I stand with my family ready to fulfill my childhood dream…
There are about 10 parks there in Orlando, we also visited Universal studio park. It is enormous . it is divided into zones of different genres . Everything here is connected with cinematography.
Everything is done taking into account the abilities of invalid people ,there are many of them among both children and grown -ups. And it is very nice that they don’t feel being outside this world.
Well then ? I was extremely impressed . All those crazy roller-coasters ,incredible rides ,and shows with super tricks . They really cause some breathtaking delight and emotions. Moving from one attraction to another you forget about everything even about having a snack.
Miami … very delicious word ; gentle ocean, perfect roads, posh limos, civilize apple-pie order . But if you ,guys, prefer vacation in the luxuriant growths of the tropics and beautiful nature ,so Miami is not your choice.
In my view Miami is — Cyprus , Turkey and Spain in one place , but with American verve and many- years- polished service ,with toney and fully permeated with the smell of dollars atmosphere ..
There now ! Didn’t manage to put it shortly . Anyway it’s quite difficult to be brief when you are writing about US. Everything is too ambitious and graceful here Yes. And it is the style of the US…
