MIAMI HERALD: Can't sleep? Let's pull an all-nighter on the beach

[cjnews]

Sleepless nights don't always have to be an unwelcome side effect of anxiety. On Saturday, you can put the z's aside in favor of Sleepless Night. Starting at 6 p.m. you can stimulate your senses with an assortment of arts and entertainment diversions from Ocean Drive to Normandy Fountain until 7 a.m. Sunday. The event will feature everything from virtual reality live animation performances and flash mob dances to pajama runs and -- in the wake of that whole balloon boy fiasco -- a show by helium balloon acrobats. There's also a pre-dawn showing of classic cartoons and live music as well as a yoga class for those who insist on doing the downward dog before trying the hair of the dog. The Catalina Hotel and Beach Club will offer options for sleep as well as an assortment of pop art installations and unplugged live music all night long. Best of all, the entire all nighter is free.
