Graffiti style
It is days like yesterday that make Will and I look at each other and say “I am so glad we decided to stay in Miami”.
We spent the morning at the beach and in the afternoon we went for a ride in the car to check out all the graffiti in Wynwood. (I have been wanting to go back and take pictures for a while)
We walked around, checked out some awesome graffiti, took pictures and found the Wynwood Kitchen and Bar where we decided to sit outside and have some dinner.
Let me stop for a second and tell you about the Wynwood Kitchen and Bar, I have never eaten at a place with SO much AMAZING art all around.
AMAZING! (and the food was pretty good too)
So, where else could we live where we could have the beach and awesome urban city life also?
Miami, we are so happy we stayed. 🙂
This post is picture heavy because not only was there amazing art everywhere but, I also want to show you “my” Miami.
Not the Miami The Real Housewives of Miami show you. 😉

Those are AWESOME. This sort of thing is an aspect of city life that I miss.
I don’t know if you read Sweet Juniper (http://www.sweet-juniper.com/), but you might really like it. It’s written by a couple who have two small children and moved from San Francisco to Detroit a few years ago. There’s a lot of stuff about urban living, art, stay-at-home parenting, etc. Jim (the dad) did a whole series of photos of Juniper (the daughter) in front of cool graffiti in both cities. Here’s a link to some of the photos:

You might enjoy looking at Jim’s photo-stream in general. The Detroit graffiti isn’t as spectacular as what you’ve shown here, but it seems like you have a lot of interests in common with the Sweet Juniper folks.
