Jelly Fishes are back in South Beach and Miami Beach

In February 2011 it was the Portuguese Man o' War (jellyfish) that invaded the beach of Miami and again jelly fishes are back. This time it's moon jellyfish. They look like the common round jellyfishes. And they too sting. Around mid August 2011 when I went to the beach, there were thousands of them on the shoreline and in the water. (I didn't have my camera on me to take the pic).

Jelly fish sting does not cause serious injuries, but if you're stung, its painful. Best not to get into the water. And if you do get stung, rush to the lifeguard's station. They do have solutions to ease the itching and burning from the sting. Better to check the warning flags at the lifeguard's station before getting into the water anytime of the year.

Here is a link to my last post about jellyfishes in South Beach, Miami: http://newyorkerinmiami.blogspot.com/2011/02/jelly-fish-at-south-beach.html

Blue Ridge Parkway - Pictures!!

Here are some pictures of Blue Ridge Parkway.

 

Here are some pictures of Linville Fall 

Linville Falls

Yep, we drove again from NY to Miami. This time we took a wonderful route, Blue Ridge Parkway instead of I95. On the way we stopped at Linville Falls on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina. The fall is amazing. There are three different falls but we got to see only one as it was getting dark. We're definitely taking the Blue Ridge Parkway again and we want to visit all the falls.

Here are some pictures of Blue Ridge Parkway.

Bicycle rental made easy

Renting a bike in South Beach has become as easy as renting a luggage cart at the airport. The whole thing is automated. Simply use your credit card, tent a bike and return it back to the station. This picture was taken in front of Five Guys on 15th and Washington Ave.
