Tuesday trip to Key West

We left Key Largo around 8:30 for the 100 mile drive to Key West.  It was interesting to drive across all of the bridge including the 7 mile bridge. IMG_2751 We stopped for breakfast so got to Key West about 11:30.

Took the 90 minute Conch Train Tour http://www.conchtourtrain.com/ IMG_2776 and thought it was very well done.  It seemed like we went all over Key West and saw a lot of things that we missed the last time we were there.

After the tour we walked down Duval Street and had lunch at Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville.  IMG_2795 IMG_2796

Next stop was the Hemingway House with 44 cats roaming around.  We took a guided tour there too.

By the time that was over it was after 4:00 so we started back down Duval Street.  Had a piece of Key Lime pie at the Blonde Giraffe.  Got back in the car and hit the road around 5:30.  It was really slow getting out of town but once we got on the highway it moved along okay.  Saw another great sunset but this time in the rearview mirror. 

Stopped for dinner 10 miles South of our hotel and then headed back.
