american spirit + euro trash + latin soul = south beach. interesting: an american city with a bit of european flare. despite the retro all-american feel of ocean avenue in all its art deco glory, the pedestrian lincoln avenue has a distinct las ramblas feel with its plethora of open air cafe seating. lining the street are euro-trash clothing stores, the staple starbucks, cuban eateries, overpriced boutiques, and the uber-americana ghirardelli chocolate store. it's even a guess as to whether the chick behind the counter will speak english or spanish. take it or leave it, but i'll take it.
i HEART the beach for the day, a meal down espaƱola way, and a martini in a breezy delano cabana. and then i will sit and soak in the warmth. becasue soon i will be in milwakee.
