Key West Finale...Finally!

We hit the ground running the second we got home, so this post is a little tardy but I have to get it up here before I forget everything! On day 3 of our trip we visited the Southernmost Point and the Hemingway House. The grounds at Hemingway's House were spectacular!! Beautiful and lush gardens all around. His 6-toed cats lounged around all over the place; I think there were ~30 of them there. We walked all over the island on day three and ate the most amazing Cuban food for dinner that night! Day 4 (Valentine's Day) was our relaxing day; we spent the majority of the day at Fort Zachary Taylor State Park where they have the most beautiful beach! Our feet were sore from walking the day before so we rented a bicycle built for 2 on Saturday as well! That was an adventure in itself. We decided that every couple should have to ride one of these in an urban setting at least once in their relationship (great team-building exercise). We enjoyed the sunset that night from the deck of the hotel pool where our bartender kept me sufficiently supplied with mango smoothies!! Sunday we enjoyed a big breakfast on the water and hit up a local farmer's market that we came across. Around 11am, we left Key West for Miami in our convertible! The drive back was beautiful. We stopped at Bahia Honda State Park and spotted some crazy iguanas! We then headed to Key Biscayne where we toured Bill Baggs State Park including an old lighthouse. Our last stop was Miami International Airport!
Enjoy the pics of our final days!
