MIAMI trip!

Jul 09, 2006 20:39

hello everybody!
here Im again..we just came from Miami( my bf and I) vacation and we totally were dissapointed by the place..
things we hated about MIAMI BEACH:

1)retarded spanish population: rude and hostile! They dont smile, they dont understand jokes..they are NOT FRIEDNLY!! they DO NOT welcome tourists
2)population consists of spanish and black people..spanish 90%..if you see an american it's a surprise..he might be a tourist too! we were really happy when we happened to talk to an american waiter!
3) if you don't speak spanish you are lost... if you ask for directions, out of 10 people only one might speak english..we didnot have this problem couse I spoke spanish, but these spanish retards cannot even give the right directions!
4)P-A-R-K-I-N-G!!! ohh this is a huge problem on the beach...there is a lot of traffic and no parking spaces on the streets..most of them are reserved for "vip" people.
5) if they see you are a tourist they try to rip you off as much as they can!
6) in stores, even in MALL there no fixed prices. you have to bargin! the way they do it: they put a high price on the cloth or whatever, and when you ask for price and if its expensive they tell you" ok I can give it to you for...and then if it's still expensive.they lower the price.. BUT we always doubted if the cloth was real or fake..
7) Everyone has a fancy car and shows off..STYLE is Everything in Miami...we felt like people compete with each other..its all about being cool and trendy!
8)miami beaches are the ugliest beaches! what we saw on the postards, on the Tv comercials is not true..we went to the beach.the water was sooo dirty..
9)it's very crowdy. nightlife goes on till 6 a.m. and the crowd is not the best one..hookers,gay people,homeless...very low class people..it's dangerous to walk.
10) it's a criminal city..there are cops at every corner...no wonder, when we stopped at the gas station, people were doing cocaine in the car!

One thing we liked about Miami: :)

a 1/2hour boat trip around Miami downtown( by the way,downtown is a better looking place than the beach area, but there is a lots of renovations and constractions going on there)) area.. the captain was a pleasant and a very nice american guy..he was funny and full of life..he showed us huge beautiful mansions if popular stars: Julio Ingelsias, Paulina Rubio,etc.and mansions where well known movies were shot.

conclusion: I don't have any desire to go back to Miami ever again...main reason: PEOPLE! and miami is only 3/5 hours away!!
here is Saint petersburg, tampa and clearwater the people are totally different. they are nicer, they have more manners, they smile more..
I will update the videos of the city that we took in my next entry:)

chiao till then
