Wynwood and The Miami Design District - Saturday Feb. 19th

We had not yet been to any of Miami proper so we chose an outing to visit the Wynwood Wall Museum and then the Design District.  The Wynwood Wall is an outdoor art museum for street artists in which about 24 walls have been beautifully painted by street artists. We ate our picnic lunch while visiting the open air art museum and then continued on foot to the Design District a few blocks away where we were rewarded with an outdoor display of high end race cars - Porsches, Lambourghinis, Mazzarattis... The design district also had many high end shops for those who could afford such luxuries. Our return experience via public transportation was less than optimal as the boat show was in full swing, causing the normal bus route to alter its' route. After an hour of waiting for a bus that was never coming, we decided to walk the nearly 3 miles from Miami to Miami Beach where we found our dinghy at the police boat ramp right where we'd left it 7 hours earlier.
