CamilaQ Posted December 10 Report Share Posted December 10 Good old days in Miami. Marsbar in Kendall, The Church in Sobe, Hungry Sailor, in Coconut Grove and The Edge in Ft Lauderdale. Those were my spots. I wish there were photos to remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
