We began this morning with a trip in the
shuttle from our hotel to downtown. Boarded the City Views trolley for a 90min fully narrated city tour (hop-on, hop-off) but we decided to do the whole circuit first. The sun was shining and there was a lot to see! We walked the length of Duval St (the main street) which has the unofficial honour of being 'America's longest street' because it runs from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean! I am standing on Duval St in the first pic. David is standing at the Southernmost Point marker at the end of Duval St - the very 'end' of the USA - next stop: Cuba, 90 miles away!Key West is certainly a 'fun' town and we really could spend a week here and still not do everything we would like to do.... but we had a great day, ate a HUGE lunch (again, by accident - we'll have to learn to order half serves, or share a meal), met some lovely people and felt quite at home.
Are you going to Cuba? Be careful.
ReplyDeleteI really need to see a photo of you guys relaxing by a pool somewhere sipping a marguerita...your tour of the US looks gurleing...but fun.
We did have a 'down' day on Wednesday... but it was raining - so we went to Sears and I shopped for swimmers - with success, $US7.99! - but couldn't sit around the pool because it was still raining! Maybe in the next couple of days we will! (but then, why pay to come all the way to Florida, when I could sit on the beach + margarita at home......
