Dancing Feet

Ever wonder just who is dancing on the side of the InterContinental Miami? Each year, the hotel hosts a Skyline Dancers competition and this year they took it to social media where people all over the world could submit video auditions for their chance to win a spot on the side of the building for the calendar year.

The 2016 winners — Jalen Sanders from Kentucky, Ryan Rosinski from Ohio, and Kalyn James from Miami — were chosen because each has such a unique style and something new to bring to the digital canvas and Miami skyline; ICMiamiHotel.com.

CAR TRAVEL 101
The open road lures for what seems to be the simplest of vacations. But the excitement can soon give way to discomfort…but not if you pack the following essentials.

Fine Drive
Pack both regular sunglasses and yellow-lens driving glasses, they’ll come in handy. Also, make sure to back up your GPS with a paper road atlas and get a radar detector, in case you end up speeding on the open road.

 

 

Cool Passengers
A hot sunny car is not fun. Invest in passenger window UV/Protector shades as well as a windshield sunshade for when you’re parked. For long trips, think travel pillows and body wipes to keep everyone refreshed and happy.

 

 

Trip Prep
Pack light so there’s room to shop along the way. Bring a portable stain remover, because, well, someone will spill something. And make a road trip mix, not just satellite radio or Pandora, but music that suits the trip’s theme and mood.
