Wooow, I never thought I would let this blog without any activities for so long. But it's true that I have been kind of busy, but the main reason is that I became somehow lazy :). But here are some fresh news from Princeton where the weather doesn't seem to stabilize.

I have done a lot of things during this month, from my last entry, and it will be hard to recall everything, that is why I will only talk about the most important topics.

On April 18th, my love Celine came again to Princeton for two amazing weeks, and since the followin day (the 19th) was our 4th year anniversary, we decided to celebrate it in the good way : we went in a nice place for a full week vacation. But I will let you judge by yourself :

Miami - Arena

But our hotel was located here (click to zoom) :

Miami - Miami Beach

The place was awesome, the weather was awesome and it was really great to spend a week far from everything with just the two of us. This was the best vacation I have ever had and the first real vacation I could enjoy with Celine :) !

Since we arrived early on Saturday, we had the time to enjoy the rest of the afternoon at Miami Beach and started to visit the area. As you can see, this was what I could see in front of me :

Miami - Beach Front

When I looked to the left :

Miami - Beach Left

To the right :

Miami - Beach Right

During this week, we visited a lot around Miami Beach and Downtown Miami ; we spent most of the morning on the beach, sun bathing, and the afternoon walking around the city. It will be a real pain in the ass to describe every thing we did, but one word can describe the week we spent : AWESOME !

So, I think the best way to share my experience is to show you some photos of this amazing city where "Fiesta" is the master world.

When we were walking around Downtown Miami, we stopped by a place called the Bank of America Tower where there was a Starbuck's Coffee on the ground floor. Since I had to go to the restroom, I asked where I could find one and they told me to go to the "Skyline" floor ; not knowing exactly what they were talking about, I took the elevator where I found only two buttons : "GF" (Ground Floor) and "SL" (Skyline). And what was my surprise when I got out of the lift :

Miami - Skyline

This is a photo taken from the terrace, I forgot to take one from the inside ... Nevertheless, the view was amazing and in fact, most of the building have a Skyline here. Since they can not dig below the ground to make a parking, the parking is located between the ground and the Skyline.

Another great place in Downtown Miami is called "Bayside" :

Miami - Bayside 1

Near the bay, there are a lot of restaurants, shops, bars, free concert etc ... It is a nice place to spend the evening, listening to music while enjoying a mojito or a daiquiri.

We took a lot more photos than this, around 300, but I am just to tired and lazy to put some more on the blog. I will maybe create a Picasa Gallery (like Fabien :p) if I find the motivation or I have enough demand ;) !

So, after this amazing week, we returned to Princeton almost black and had to face some bad weather :( ... Nevertheless, being with Celine made me forget about this and we spend another nice but lazy week :).

Unfortunately, she had to go back to Paris because of school ... But hopefully :D, she is coming back on the 18th of June ! I am so happy and eager to see her again, less than 5 weeks to wait before spending the rest of my time in Princeton with her !

After that, i didn't do anything special : went to work, to the Gold's Gym etc ... Just hoping the time will go fast until the 18th :D !
