Description: 

Mr. and Mrs. Mallison travel to Miami during the Christmas holiday "to spend a week looking at horses" (229). In 1937 they would probably have been attending the thoroughbred races at Hialeah Park Race Track, which opened in the 1920s and became famous - for its flamingos as well as its horse races - after a reconstruction in 1932.
