Joe told you all those years ago--"Knowing is half the battle."

Thursday

Hailing from New York, the internationally acclaimed performers of Absinthe take you on surreal journey when Spiegelworld hits Collins Park with a dazzling burlesque style show sure to titillate you and your friends. For a more family friendly outing, take the kids down south to Santa's Enchanted Forest. It's the world's largest Christmas themed amusement park. To cold for that? Then heat things up when the Miami Heat take on the New Jersey Nets.

Friday

Hey, twinkle toes, why not grab a drink at Wine Fridays at the Mandarin then check out the abstract mechanics of Ballet Mecanique, you can enjoy the live performance and the original 1924 film.

Saturday

Take a stroll through the Wynwood Sculpture Park and gaze upon the five monumental sculptures by Hans Van de Bovenkamp. Then take a walk through Jorge Pardo's House and peruse objects that cross the boundaries of art, design and architecture, defying genre and definition. Cap off the artsy day by visiting Enoc Perez and his forty featured canvases.

Sunday

Wake up early and shop for healthy fruits, vegetable and flowers at the Farmer's Market on Lincoln Road or get in the holiday spirit with a festive trip to Key Biscayne where Winter Nights & Lights will brighten up you and your family's day.
