Key West - The Most Southern Point!


WHOO HOO!  We made it to the Keys!


From our campground, in Marathon, FL., we drove as far south as possible.  The mint green-blue water surrounding us on both sides of Highway 1 was just breath taking.

We HAD to get a picture of Zach in front of this Historical site!


We parked for free at the Eco-Discovery building, and walked and walked and walked till we hit Mallory Square.


There are trolleys driving around everywhere.


Parker and the Harper boys thought this was fun outside the Shipwreck Museum.


Then, we admired all the pretty shells and other decorations here.


Just beautiful.


Great white shark's teeth!


In Key West, there are some interesting things to see and admire. :)  This is 'Sponge Bob!' :)


Many cruise ships dock here daily.


They are massive!


We found so many roosters and chickens through out Key West, too!  Too weird!


Look at this tree's trunk.


The legendary Ernest Hemingway's home.  He still has over 40 cats living here!


It is just awesome to think that such a creative mind lived here for many years.


This is his backyard.  It seems like such a peaceful place, inside of a crazy-busy town like Key West.


Key West Lighthouse. :)


Highway 1 starts here and ends all the way up in the state of MAINE!


Along the streets, there are so many cute little homes.  They made such an effort to show hospitality.


Along with the chickens, we saw a huge iguana!  So cool!


YEAH!!!  Here we are!  One more step and we would be in the ocean! ;)


Blessings,
Steph
