Florida

Yes I've been to Florida and it was great. Miami Beach is an amazing place and we had fantastic weather and one hell of a car (a Ford Mustang Convertible) to be there...and going to Disney World and SeaWorld was also definitely worth it...I had a great time there... ;-) ...so make sure to check out all the pictures and videos I took in Florida, Disney World and SeaWorld. The pictures already tell most of the story to give you a little overview, this is what we did during the trip:
We (that is Andreas, Maik and myself) arrived Friday evening in Orlando, where we went to get our rental car...since Andreas didn't feel like driving all the way to Miami (and back) alone, we asked how expensive it would be to get an additional driver and how much it would cost for the driver to be less than 25 years old...well the additional driver was just 9$ a day, where the young one would have been additional 25$ per day...so we decided to get the additional driver (i.e. Maik) and no driving for me (I'll be 25 in the end of the year)...yet, as soon as the car rental guy heard that we were going to Miami Beach, he made us an offer to get a convertible for additional 12$ a day and the additional driver for free...et voilà...we got a Ford Mustang Convertible to cruise through Miami...nice... ;-)
So we went straight from Orlando to Miami Beach where we stayed until Sunday...as mentioned before...South Beach (i.e. the southern part of Miami Beach) is great... ;-) ...we were just walking around, hanging on the beach and relaxing in the warm ocean water....just nice...and there were plenty of things to do on Saturday night as well, where on our way back to the hotel (sometime after 3am) by pure chance we saw something going on in one of the bars, walked in there and saw one more hour of a nice live performance of Erykah Badu...I mean how cool is it to see a girl with such an amazing voice...and best of all...for free... ;-)
On Sunday (after relaxing once again at South Beach) we cruised (did I already mention that we had a Mustang Convertible?) through Miami Beach and Miami, where we saw the amazing Venetian Pool and the honestly not so amazing Little Havana...then we continued our cruising to Fort Lauderdale to see all the canals and yachts and drove a bit on the nice A1A street right next to the ocean (the street goes all the way from Miami Beach to Palm Beach, but it just takes way too long to drive there all the way)...there we also found a nice spot in Boca Raton to relax one more time at the ocean...nice... ;-)
After a short stop in Palm Beach which was completely empty by the time we got there (guess all the rich guys were already sleeping... ;-)), we were back in Orlando (or to be more precise in Kissimmee) where we stayed until Tuesday to see Disney World and SeaWorld...
Both parks are amazing...not that much for the exciting roller coasters (the ones in Disney World were rather slow (although Splash Mountain was still fun) and there were just two (nice ones though) in SeaWorld), but for the other attractions...seeing all the Disney characters (especially Mickey Mouse... ;-)) in Disney's Magic Kingdom and the shows with these amazing animals in SeaWorld (like huge killer wales (Orca) jumping around and throwing trainers all over the place and dolphins making somersaults and sea lions performing like actors) was just nice...it's hard to catch the atmosphere inside the parks with pictures or even videos but just believe me that they're worth a visit...
