This film was probably recorded in the early 1950s. Looks like good old friends enjoying the pleasant Florida weather. They take us to visit the Hialeah Park Track, a horse race where we see a bunch of flamingos and the last stop is a dog race.
The Hialeah Park Race Track is one of the oldest existing recreational facilities in southern Florida. Originally opened in 1922. The park became so famous for its flamingo flocks that it has been officially designated a sanctuary for the American Flamingo by the Audubon Society.
