    Hi Jeeves, Yes I guess I should - I've just been in Spanish speaking Tenerife where they have this word Urbanizacion, everythig is modern and they have the knack of making a relatively small town seem like a big city in places. Although most of the buildings are what I would term modern Spanish, square and rendered concrete blocks, there are some Miami style hotels and apartments in the older part of the town which add a certain something to the place. The last line is wordplay si for sea etc. Hope this doesn't confuse you even more.
    Andy

    I went along for the word play fun and thought that the narrator was comparing Miami to 'Playa Sun Sand Si', meaning Miami was too urban for him.

    They say some things provide inspiration, but I never thought of sangria :-)

    I've been looking at this for two days now, and am pleased to see I'd interpreted it properly.

    VERY cool job.
