I love the Florida Keys...I grew up in Miami, and as teenagers a trip to the Keys to "party" was the best!! It has changed so much since those days, but I have to say that life still slows down in the Keys and there isn't any place like it. You don't have to search far to find it's original charm. Great photos...I can't wait to go back some day soon---I no longer live in Miami, but I'm still only 6 hours away from Key West. |

At sunset as you watch the sun going down, the last very second you get a bright green color just above the sun when it has gone under the horizon. I saw it on the Tortugas several years ago from our boat. Its what you look for as the sun goes down in Key West while having your margaretta and watching the boat parade. It really cool. Van

Thanks for posting the images.
It looks like you both had a great time and saw a lot of what's going on while there. You certainly found a lot of the things that make a trip down there memorable, and have excellent images to show for it.
I have been to Ft Jefferson several times, the first time about 1961, and it does not seem to change much thru the years. I don't spend much time in Key West, but it's a good place to tour. I go there for boat parts sometimes during my stays in the lower keys in the summer.
Love the pics, they bring back a lot of happy times for me. I didn't see any pics of the 12 inch cannons that used to be on top of the fort, but they aren't much to photograph.
If you like history, Google "florida keys museum". I makes my trips better to know the story behind some ot the things that I see as I travel.
