and then there is this one... Miami Beach but what is the hotel? I
think it is a famous old one of some sort but
I haven't been to Miami in the last 40 years.

Ann, I think the big hotel must be gone. The building with the bell tower
looks vaguely like a California mission to me. Did a search and there were
missions in Florida, tons of them. So I can't go through them all, and it
would be a lot for anyone to go through. :-)
It does look like that... sweet of you to even try a search -
I had only hoped it was someplace someone had been and remembered..
didn't really think or expect anyone to do my googling for me ... but
using the word "mission" - I had
not done that yet... might combine it with the most probably locations...
But it's a suggestion.
You might also figure out what the most likely big hotel chains were back
then. Then see if they are still in business, ie the chains, and go to
their sites for historical information. But that hotel, if it was a chain, is
probably is gone as a chain too.
HTH, Marnie
hehe - I looked at HTH and at first thought "hit the hay" ... then the
lightbulb went on over my head.
-- the hotel wasn't a chain ... and the first letter of the first word
was "R" I knew it
as a young woman ... I just thought it might have been so well known
it was
still there or someone might just recognize it because they had been
there themselves.
again, thanks for the effort - you and my other compadres here
