Bienvenidos a Miami

Bienvenidos a Miami

You may have heard me saying how I am going to go to Japan at some point?  Well, sadly it’s not going to be this year..

But all is not lost.  No sir!

I will be venturing to Miami Beach on 28th July which, I am sure will prove to be one to remember!  I have seen many films and TV shows filmed in Miami so I know it’s glamorous.  The weather in August according to some weather sites is making Miami look like a scorcher!  Average temperatures of around 30° and constant sunshine can’t be bad!

Ok, so we do sometimes get that heat here in the UK but it isn’t very reliable.  For example, we might get a week where it starts out colder than expected, rains for the next three days, calms down for day 5, then knocks out a scorching day when people least expect it on day 6.  Then after having that unexpected day, we all wear less the next day thinking we might have the same again..  Nope, the week ends with a storm then the cycle continues throughout the British summer. :???:

Well, I have decided if I am going to go to Miami with all the beach and sand, I need to have myself a beach body.  So, I shall be ditching the chocolates at break times and replacing that with a healthier alternative.  Maybe an apple?  Maybe fruit juice and a sandwich?  I have no idea, but it is completely necessary to do this.

Why?

Holidays 2008

Can you believe it’s already June?!  well I am having a hard time believing that fact!  Mainly because I haven’t got any holidays planned to look forward to!

Ok, that is a lie..  I am going to Prague for 3 days in October, but that is a long way away and it is only 3 days!  I need a summer vacation!  2 weeks please!  Yes please!  Any suggestions?

Where is there to go outside of UK that I haven’t been?  (apart from the whole entire world, haha).

USA is a new idea that has been mentioned recently.  I think it would be ACE!  just need it to be confirmed then I can chill out and have something to look forward to at long last!  I think I deserve a holiday!

Amsterdam a must see - in the SUMMER!

Amsterdam a must see - in the SUMMER!

Remember I said I was going to Amsterdam? Well, I did and it was cool! Cool apart from the weather, which was a bit less than just ‘cool’. More like FREEZING! The wind chill was so bad, it was already below freezing most of the time but then add to that blizzard like wind conditions and then you’ll understand why I am complaining.

000DSC00299.JPGI have been to a few places around Europe, but nowhere compares to Amsterdam with the number of people riding bicycles! They were the main hazard on the roads. Forget the trams or the taxi, watch out for the bikes! There are cycle lanes EVERYWHERE but they blended in with footpaths to the point that you’d only know you are on a cycle lane sometimes by looking behind you and dodging the bike that was about to run you over!

Cafes in Amsterdam were never far away, with certain smells clouding your nose when you walk past.
