Once you go SMART you never go back

May 11 2011
Filed In: Florida, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami Beach

Now I know why the called them SMART | Miami, Florida | Ok, this time I tried to be original and unpredictable. I came to Miami and decided to have my own SMART Car experience for my daily 40 minutes commute from South Beach to Fort Lauderdale. And yes you read right 40 minutes, because when renting a SMART Car, the only thing you are missing is the DRAMA of finding a free parking space in South Beach for your oversized car or SUV.

Next Stops Miami and Ft. Lauderdale

May 04 2011
Filed In: Ft. Lauderdale, Miami Beach

Next Stops Miami and Ft. Lauderdale | Florida | I am off next week to Miami Beach and Ft. Lauderdale to spend a full week of work and relaxation. The main reason of my trip, is that I have been invited by the IGLTA to be a Guest Speaker at their Annual International Congress “Unleashed” to take place May 10 – 15th. During this week I will be also experiencing and reviewing four properties in Miami Beach – The TIDES South Beach, Canyon Ranch Miami, The Palms and the new self proclaimed gay hotel of Miami The Lord’s. If you see me driving around on a little SMART car…. say Hi, since I will be testing for the first time my own SMART experience. Finally I want to invite you to come to the Wilton Manors IGLTA Consumer Trade Show which will take place on – MAY 13th. from 6PM – 10PM – out in the open. There, CarlosMeliaBlog will have its own Booth, so please come by and say HI. !!!! CM
