Before you come at me with an angry tone of voice, talking ‘bout, “Hey man where you been? How come you ain’t blogging it up like you used to,” let me just give you an opportunity to view my little animation experiment above. Now, it would be misleading to suggest that this animation is the cause for my latest hiatus from blogging, but I hope you would forgive me in exchange for my attempt at eye candy.
For the past few days, I’ve been playing the role of tour guide for a young lad named Nick from Oklahoma. I say “young lad” but he’s actually 4 years my elder. Our exchange program has officially begun. For the next two weeks I will continue to provide him with things to do and places to see in my hometown of Miami. Then, come July 31st, I will pack my bags and experience Claremore, Oklahoma for two weeks as well.
So far he’s experienced the following: Lincoln Road, South Beach, Hollywood Beach, Alligator Alley, Coral Gables, Club Space, Jazid, a brief tour of the Delano, Salvadorian food, Colombian home-cooked meals, Gator bites, pizza, sea food, a Cuban birthday party (with mariachis!), and there’s plenty left to experience.
Needless to say, he’s already experiencing a bit of culture shock. I can’t say for sure what I expect to see and do in Claremore when my time comes, but I’m ready for some culture shock of my own.
Any suggestions as to where else I should take Nick while he’s in South Florida? I’m thinking of snorkeling in The Keys, taking an airboat tour of The Everglades, and checking out some local museums. Suggestions are encouraged!
Nice experiment..i can now understand what steph means…stop being so talented. lol
aww, i miss florida! i love the water + outdoors. definitely do the airboat ride.
Fairchild Tropical Gardens is nice! Not sure if they have any special exhibitions going on right now…but if they do it could be worth checking out.
Also, feeding the giraffes at Metro Zoo could be fun. I’ve always wanted to try. You have to go before four o’clock I believe.
You could go experience the new Cinebistro at Dolphin Mall. It’s pretty pimp.
The Museum of Science is fun. Maybe Parrot Jungle Island. Vizcaya! That’s pretty.
There’s also something called Coral Castle that I never knew about unti recently… http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa071999.htm
Hope you and Nick have fun!
