The Keys are connected by Hwy 1, including a series of bridges.
The longest bridge in the keys, Seven Mile Bridge (17th longest in the world) connects Key Vaca to the Duck Key.
Running parallel the Seven Mile Bridge is a portion of the Old Seven Mile Bridge which is now used for fishing.
It took us about two hours to travel through the keys to Key West. Our first stop was the southernmost point in the continental U.S. (Photo below includes a rare sighting of the brother!)
Off to the left of the above photo is this view:
Towards Cuba.Tomorrow butterflies, fish and ships.
I feel like I'm in Geography class.
ReplyDeleteSo were you at all nervous traveling on a bridge that long?? Especially with what happen a couple of months ago. I'm looking forward to more pictures of you vacation.
ReplyDeletenope, no worries, I was oblivious to everything but my camera and the scenery

BTW when are you coming down here? R U scared???? :) It's just like NYC, Yankees fans, New yorkers, Puerto Ricans, bad drivers, but we have really nice weather and nice beaches. You'll end up here anyway when you retire, so you might as well get a preview...Plus, we have a scary black helicopter type mouse... The mouse is your friend... don't F with the mouse... but I guess that's the same as NY also, except ours is fake and not nearly as big as the ones there HAHAHA.

What's a Helicopter mouse, is it a relative of the flying squirrel? Can it clear giant buildings in one leap, like our rats can?? Didn't think so..... I'm scared to come down there as long as Steinbrenner is there - he may go all alzheimers and think he's the owner of the Marlins!
ReplyDeleteP.S. You should have poached the infrontofusthewholewayandinmostofthepicturesasuarus, I hear that they make bank on the black market (the meat is super juicy)
