2008 Year in the Making

2008 got off to a fun start with a return to Miami for the third annual South Beach Comedy Festival with friends Dana and Jenny. This year we saw comedian Dave Attell (best known as the host of Comedy Central's "Insomniac"). He was as sick and twisted as ever.

Of course, comedy was not the only form of entertainment. We enjoyed a nice wine sampler and delicious food at the celebrated Timo's in North Miami Beach and also dined at the trendy Yuca in South Beach where we were disappointed by the painfully slow service.

We also made time for cruising South Beach, grabbing lunch by the ocean and then heading to the Wolfsonian, a design museum with a nice collection of art deco miscellany (and peculiar movies playing in a cafe where you can get a coke for just $4).

Before heading home to O-town, we also toured Coral Gables and Coconut Grove, where we enjoyed a wonderful, belly-busting brunch.
