I’m in Miami Beach
The flight from Orlando to Miami was pretty much up and down, which reminded me so much of flying within Europe.
We stayed at Loews Miami Beach Hotel in South Beach, which to me was in the best location within walking distance of Lincoln Road Mall and Ocean Drive.

I was actually really surprised by Miami – we both loved it. I think it was a great destination for a little bit of sightseeing and a little bit of relaxing. Plus staying at a beautiful resort also made all the difference.
While we were in Miami we checked out Lincoln Road Mall for shopping and dining; did a bus tour of downtown Miami passing Coconut Grove, Biltmore Hotel, Venetian Pool and Little Havana; did a boat tour of The Everglades to see the gators (disappointingly we only saw three in total whilst out on the boat); swam in Miami Beach; chilled poolside at the hotel; dined at Zuma in downtown Miami (amazing), went to see Kevin Hart perform at American Airlines Arena; and dined along Ocean Drive. So a lot really in two and a half days!

It was a crazy city full of life where practically anything goes. It also had a very glamourous side. I would definitely return and stay for longer.
