A Trip to Key West

Yesterday, we drove to Key West. Even though it is only about 67 miles away, it takes a couple of hours due to the fact that there is a lot of traffic and you travel on a two-lane highway the entire way there.

Once we arrived, we were able to park a ways out from the historic part of Key West and then ride our bikes down to the old part of the city.

It was fun to see all the people - a huge cruise ship was docked at Mallory Square where everyone goes to watch the sunsets. If you like to eat, drink and shop, then Key West has something for you.

We poked around the historic part of the city reading about the history of Key West - of course, fishing is a huge part of the history.

We also went to see President Truman's Little White House. It was interesting to learn more about Truman as well as learn about how other modern Presidents have used this location for meetings and/or retreats. The houses around the Little White House are beautiful, too.

We spent some time down at Mallory Square and had a "Key Lime Pie on stick" - a piece of Key Lime Pie that was dipped in chocolate and then frozen. Delicious!!
