Onwards!! We drove on down the Florida everglades and headed into Miami. We were spending a couple nights in this town – nothing special in mind for us to see and do, but just to soak up the ambiance and to see if we could spot any well known filming spots for one of our favourite shows – Dexter. We stayed in a funky hotel called The New Yorker. I liked it’s style.

Down the road from us was the Seven Seas motel with the outdoor pool used for the Ice Truck Killer victim scenes in Dexter, Michael C Hall just makes me think of Miami now.

I liked Miami – it’s style and architecture is very Art Deco with bold curving lines and I liked the very retro feel of some of the buildings. It is indeed very sunny and warm and I can imagine the heat would be tedious after a long time.

We enjoyed a Brazilian BBQ meal here on the bay and wandered the streets of downtown. It was a great way to spend a pleasant few days, very relaxing. Oh and Dexter? Turns out he was on hiatus for a while. Taking a break from the serial killing business. But really this is definitely a series everyone should give a try – but make sure you start from Season 1. It’s very compelling, if only all our politicians had such a strong moral code to adhere to.
