A fun day in South Beach with Girlfriends

I felt like I was in a different country walking down this bustling side street filled with restaurants and boutiques. At the end, Chocolate Restaurant serves up european fare in a beautiful tropical ambiance.

Lincoln Road is a pedestrian-only mall that has high-end fashion, galleries, boutiques and restaurants. Occasionally there are music events and festivals that take place throughout the year.

The place to go at Lincoln Road to people watch while sipping a glass of wine.

With its white beaches, beautiful aqua color and half-naked people, how could you come to Miami and NOT go to the beach!!?

World-class DJs, strong drinks, and attractive people make this place my favorite club! If you're staying in South Beach, you'll have to cab it because it's in downtown Miami. Note: there is no hip-hop at this club, it's true house, progressive and all things to make you shake your groove thing.

This has the glamour and outrageousness that one would expect from a South Beach club. You have to wait to be hand-picked from the crowd to get in, so dress up, go early and go with a group of ladies. The decor, palms and open-air atmosphere are hypnotic; that is, until they started playing top 40. This is a good place to start off the night, just don't end it here.
