SPRING BREAKKK

The much needed and greatly anticipated Spring Break finally arrived from 12th-17th March Charlotte, Sandra, Sophie and I all headed to South Beach Miami for 5 days of SUN! 

No more cold, rain-y, snow-y grey new york! The smell of sweetly scented of coconut oil sunscreens and fruity cocktails definitely got us into a relaxed mood very quickly. 

There was a music festival going on called WMC...

We stayed at The Continental (which was very basic and student-y) the first room we were given smelt like socks that have been sitting at the back of one of my brothers wardrobes for half a year - EWWWW! Second room was better... but lets just say its the kind of hotel you would think should have an 's' in the middle!! [hostel] haha! But it was located a stones throw from Ocean Drive which had lots of (student-y) nice restaurants! 

The beach was beautiful - warm clear water, white sands... with the occasional jellyfish (but they weren't problematic - phewww! I barely noticed them but they were pretty)

First real trip out with the camera !! WOOHOO! Although I am not convinced that the beach is the best place to start with those little grains of sand near the lens! :-s 

I saw some cool stuff from the man on a uni-cycle, I think I got a chilling shot of a man selling Jewelery on the side of the road - every time I look at it I find his smile very pirate-like and eyes look quite evil! I really like it because it tells a story, you can just imagine what kind of life he leads!
