Even though we did not travel out of town, I had an
amazing break this year. It was sort of like a Miami staycation I guess, minus the hotel. The fun all started on Tuesday when I went to go see Wicked, the greatest Broadway musical of all time!! The show lived up to and beyond all my expectations. We had great seats. And, obviously, I sang along with Elphaba and Glinda. XD
I was literally fan-girling for the rest of the week. We saw the show at the Adrienne Arsht Center in downtown Miami, and stopped by my fav, the Wynwood Kitchen and Bar, for a bite before it started.

Wednesday, we headed down to Coral Gables, my old stomping grounds. Took a stroll, went to the bookstore, got some gelato. Of course, we hit up Miracle Mile and drove through the neighborhoods to look at the houses. Old money sure is pretty.
Thursday was super fun and new experience. We went to the Miami Open, one of the world's largest international tennis events. It was really cool and just the place for a sophisticated soul like myself. Everyone there was so nice, and so rich lol ! I don't even have to ask how much one girl's Chanel espadrilles cost, honey I know. I even met a lady who came here from Switzerland. The venue was beautiful, and there was so much to do. And praise the Lord because there was a Starbucks tent!! Definitely planning on going back next year if I'm home for the break.

Friday, it was South Beach time! And, by South Beach, I am referring to Lincoln Road. Obviously, I wanted to go shopping, but the real reason was to go to
Ladurée Paris. It is a macaron shop I first went to on Madison Avenue in New York. The macarons there were amazing to say the least, so when I found out they had a location in Miami, I flipped. I had literally been craving their macarons since I left the airport that summer.

But before, I could enjoy all of the fun, I had to go to Broward College in the morning to take my PERT test so that I could get Dual Enrollment classes for next year. As I was waiting for my ride, there was this super gorgeous tree with yellow flower petals all over the place. I couldn't resist the urge to take a picture.
I almost forgot one of the most exciting things of the day! So, every time we drive down to Miami, something we do often. I always saw this place on the highway called "South Beach Classics". I just thought it was a dealer for vintage cars, but low and behold, though they do have the beauties for sale, it is also a showcase completely open to the public. They have over 300 cars! And they also host parties and events. How cool! If you know me personally, you know how obsessed I am with vintage cars, so just try to imagine my level of excitement walking through this place.
My future car. XD
It was on sale for $76,500 How lovely.
