Why I would return to Miami by Liliana Rud
| Topic: Writing Competition 2010
Because one week of my life spent there is not enough for me. This city is where my dreams came true, the city where I forgot all my worries and problems; the city of lights, sun, fun and love.Actually, I have five main reasons to visit Miami once more:Meridian Street. There I broke up with my ex-boyfriend and found my true love. An hour of shedding tears on a small bench I met HIM, the beginning of today’s happy life. This street changed my life, but I noticed that all a lot of things happened here. Who knows what will happen when I will walk down it next time? Inspiration. Beaches with hot, white sand, blue and sometimes emerald-green ocean and deep-blue sky inspired me to write a very moving story which helped me to win a competition, the prize for which was a journey to Edinburgh. Edinburgh also means a lot to me, but that is another story Aviator sunglasses. My favourite sunglasses, that I have lost somewhere in Miami. In fact, it is rather strange to have hope of finding them again, but it’s happened before. I left them on a seat of the plane when I arrived at city of my dreams and thought I would never see them again. But destiny often throws up unexpected surprises. And I found them, or rather they found me. As I was walking along Meridian Street, a good-looking boy gave them back to me. He was sitting behind me in the plane and, when he saw that I left them behind, he tried to find me in the airport. But four days later he found me and I found him and we have been together ever since (yes, it’s HIM). But I have lost my sunglasses again. I don’t know where or when, but hope I will get them back.The million of interesting things I did not see or do on my previous visit. I have not been to the beach near Fort Lauderdale, nor visited Key-West. I have not walked along Pine Tree drive nor Indian Creek Drive and have not taken a photo of myself, sitting on the bench with a small case and a box of chocolates like Forest Gump! And I forget to buy a T-Skirt with big pink words on it, saying I love Miami. **This short Travel Story was submitted as part of the Holiday Travel Writing Competition.
