Exploring South Miami-Dade County (Part two)

In addition, the people there were all very nice.



There are several plant venders, including the one below, which had a surprising name for Miami-Dade County:

Seriously, I wanted to buy everything. We walk away with Mandarin Oranges, mangos, 1/2 pound of green beans, an onion and avocados and we paid maybe $5 for that.
