Key West 3
This was our last full day in Key West. We thought we might take it easy. Instead we walked everywhere.
I had to add that many of the bikes have beer holders on the handle bars. |
Here and there you find houses made of cypress. |
Everywhere we go, we have to visit a cemetery. |
The old car just seemed to suit the old home. |
This place is called the Octagon House. |
Deb found another tree, |
Next morning we went to pick our rental car. |
Key West 2
The next day we got away from the harbour and explored the Old Town. We loved what we found.
Many people get around by bike |
Many of the bikes are customized. |
This is the studio where Ernest Hemingway wrote for ten years. Pauline (one of his wives) locked him in (at his request). |
The water trough was once a urinal at Sloppy Joe's Bar |
Triple D recommended that Deb have the Lobster Roll at DJ's Crab Shack. |
More Bikes |
Just some gold at the Mel Fisher Shipwreck Museum |
They say the sunsets are great. They kind of bombed. |
Apparently Robert the Doll is haunted, and he is very famous. |
Key West 1
The drive to Key West took forever. Who knew that today would be the day for a Miami to Key West relay race. Oops
The Conch Train, the first tourist thing to do. |
This is the Customs Building (a museum now). It is one of the only brick buildings around. |
Roosters are protected, They are everywhere. |
Cruise boats come in most days. |
Bill was our driver - many thanks. |
Our first night was in a teeny room, the second in a suite with a turret bedroom. |
Rent a bike, rent a scooter, or rent a golf cart. |
The southernmost point in the continental United States |
