A shadow crossed the blue Miami sky
As we hit the causeway by the big hotels
We fought
Now I can’t remember why
After all the words were said and tears were gone
We vowed we’d never say goodbye

At the 0:05 mark, there is a hill in the background. Is that Mt. Miami? LOL

NOT a hill. In South Florida the clouds float very low over the ground so that is probably a break in the clouds creating the impression of a hill. Or it could just be trees in the distance creating that effect. The film stock is not of the highest clarity and I assure you there are NO natural hills in South Florida. Flat as a board here.

I never knew such abhorrent behavior went on there. That’s it, I’m canceling my vacation to Miami. My family will be disappointed, but I don’t want them exposed to this.
