I just returned from a great weekend getaway in Miami. My husband travels for work quite a bit, and I finally decided to tag along on a business trip.
I consider traveling to fall into one of two categories - - - a cultural experience, where one has a desire to see all of the museums/landmarks/neighborhoods etc., and the mindless relaxation trip, where fulfillment literally comes with sitting in a lounge chair and reading a book and listening to music. I guess there can be some crossovers (my weekend in Nice tacked onto my Paris trip this year), but for the most part I think it's one or the other. And with Miami for me falling into the latter category, five highlights . . .

| the gorgeous Bleau Bar at Fontainebleau. the entire hotel is so glam! |
 |
| craft beers, gourmet burgers at the casual Burger & Beer Joint |
 |
| raw tapas meu at the new Bar Crudo |
 |
| and of course, quality time with the hubby! |
We also dined at the steakhouse Prime One Twelve - delicious (too absorbed in my NY strip to take a photo!) Now, back to the grind here in NYC. It started raining the minute I needed to leave the pool yesterday, which I thought was a sign that Miami was sad I left! :)
XOXO,
The New York Newlywed
