What is there to do in Miami?

I wanna try something new. I don't wanna do anything too expensive while i'm down there. Any Ideas?What is there to do in Miami?
Miami and Miami Beach are two separate cities. Miami is a huge city that has all of the features of every major city from museums to an aquarium to a downtown with stores and restaurants. Miami Beach is just what the word says: a beach with all of the features you would expect of a community that is a few blocks wide and every inch of it within walking distance of ... the beach. I live in Miami Beach, by the way, right on the avenue where the beach is -- Collins Ave. I rarely go to the shopping avenue (Lincoln Road). Everything there including the dozens of restaurants are for tourists -- overpriced and the product less than laudatory. Nobody but a tourist would buy from most of the overpriced dress and shoe stores along the mall.



Go online to a search engine and punch in Miami, FL attractions. You will get enough to do so that you will have to move there to do it all in less than 5 years! Or go to the web site for City of Miami and they will have a section on attractions.



If you are adventurous and have a car, you ought to take drive down the coast to the Keys where there are restaurants out of 1940s movies with some of the best food at semi-reasonable prices you have ever seen. And the atmosphere ... just beautiful.What is there to do in Miami?
