I was fortunate to visit Miami, USA in late-Aug 08 and stayed at the very nice, Mandarin Oriental Miami. The weather in Miami is somewhat similar to HK (in summer) and KL (year-round) – hot and humid. This is a picture of the Miami Central Business District at sunset. The CBD is practically a ghost town during weekends, you could lie on the road and not fear being run-over by a vehicle.. it was that deserted. During weekends, the action is at the famous South Beach, where most people take the opportunity to show-off their well-toned bodies. I was told that most of the young people living in Miami are actors/actresses or models waiting to be discovered, so that explains the higher ratio of good looking people/ per sq foot in Miami, compared to other cities that I’ve visited.
