The Florida Keys

Tuesday we hit the Florida Keys. We had lunch at Key Largo at a place called Buzzard's Roost, which tasted better than it sounded. We finally got to Key West, which felt like forever, and visited the southernmost point in the US...After stopping by Ernest Hemingway's house and getting some delectable ice cream, we quickly drove to a park to capture the sunset. The entrance guard was really nice and didn't make us pay the entry fee of $3 a person (does Lydia count too?) since we were going to stay, like five minutes. We've been getting free stuff all over the place...free drinks, free side dishes, and a free soup at lunch...these Florida waiters should really double check their orders. :P Oh well, their loss, our gain.

I wish that I could have captured the seven mile long bridge, which was quite breaktaking, but I couldn't get a good shot. I was taking a little nap when Trung woke me up just as we went over the "hill" on the bridge. As we drove down the incline, all you see is the bridge and water; the Atlantic Ocean on the left and the Gulf of Mexico on the right. I'll have to buy a postcard and scan it for ya.
