Getting Some Tattoos 10'

The Corvette ZHZ we rented and drove to MiamiBrock and I have patiently waited on the Miami Ink waiting lists for months on end just too finally get in line for our tattoos. Some people have been telling us that they were overpriced and overrated but we don’t think that’s the truth at all. In fact we think that judging by their portfolios they are some of the best tattoo artists of all time! The only thing about Miami ink is that it’s in Miami. Which is 3 hours away so it’s not like something we could just do randomly one day we actually picked a day and designated it to getting our tattoos. Well long story short I didn’t want to drive because I had just spend a total of 6 hours detailing my car, and Brock’s car was broken down. We decided to get a nice Corvette from Hertz and made our way down to the land of Miami. The drive down there was completely amazing; the only problem was that it was too quick! We showed up to the tattoo parlor way before our appointment so we decided to check out everything Miami Ink had to offer before we went in. Of course we had to check out South Beach. I love everything about the area, from the beautiful women, exotic cars, tall buildings and more the entire atmosphere is breathtaking especially at night time! Since it was only daytime we really didn’t spend much time at South Beach so we went Outside of the Miami Ink Tattoo Parloraround looking for other things to do in the mean time. We quickly decided we wanted to go to the Miami Metro Zoo. When we first got there we realized it was unlike any other zoo we’ve ever been to. First off we noticed a wider variety of animals instead of just animals from one habitat. The tour guide informed us that there would be a selection of animals from Asia, Australia and Africa. Never in my years have I been to a zoo with animals from those three areas of the world combined into one. The best part about this zoo is that a majority of it is cage less, so you get to see the animals in their own nature rather than in a stationary cage. The second place we went was the Seaquarium which is a smaller scale version to our SeaWorld up in Orlando, I’m not really into the fish but my buddy Brock had a great time watching the dolphins swimming and playing in the water. One cool attraction was the Aquarium section where they had a wide array of tropical fish that were all vibrant and energetic. We were cutting it close to our tattoo time so we rushed back to the parlor where we went right in and had our seats. This is both of our second tattoos so we already knew what was coming, it was a relatively painless experience and I had a great time chatting with the tattoo artist about all of the things that he’s seen in his days in the field. Once we finished we still had a lot of time on our hands so we went down to the everglades for a night tour of the swamp. I’ve been on plenty of day tours before but I’ve never had the chance to go on a night tour. It was an awesome experience especially when it’s almost completely dark and then Our fresh new tattoos!they shine the light from the flashlight into the water and all you can see is bright orange circles surrounding you. Those bright orange circles were Alligator eyes! After we got off the tour we rushed back to South Beach so we could enjoy some dinner. We got a great seat on the outside of the of the restaurant and we got to see a train of exotic cars passing by it was a great site it was almost like a free car show! Sad enough we had to head back home because we both had to work in the morning and we wanted to show off our new tattoos to our co-workers who were sure to love them. The drive back was pretty easy, especially since we were in the Corvette and I actually got to drive this time around. We got back home and got a good nights sleep then woke up early in the morning to return our car before we went in to work.
