Kerstin in Miami

Weekend News

Holá que tal? Hope you had a great and sunny weekend as I had.
Yesterday I explored the North Beach area a little bit more: first took a sunbath at Surfside Beach – I dont’t know why it is called so, there was no surfer at all – then stayed a little bit more south at North Shore Beach. So I could tick off two more beaches from the long long list of the offical greater miami beach guide!
But due to there was no shady palm at all I got too much of the miami sunshine.

And after the relaxing afternoon on the beach I had to do my chores, little household things.
You can meet a lot of funny people at a coin laundromat here in Coconut Grove!

Luckily this was a very fast washing programm…
This sunday started with very heavy and rainy thunderstorm and I was wondering if the snorkling trip could be realised under this rough weather conditions at the Key Biscayne National Park.

But it pulled ahead and we could put out to the ocean more than an hour driving to the world’s third-larges reef! 95% of this National Park is underwater. It was awesome, snorkling very close to big barracudas, papageifishes and big swarms of other kind of colourful marina animals….
