Lost Keys




It's true that travel broadens a person, it makes you realize how deprived you are in your immediate setting, or it allows you to appreciate the gems you have not realized are scattered all over within reach. Since the first time we visited Florida we had considered making the journey from Miami to the furthermost Key. Because of time we were not able to make the drive the last time we were in Florida in 2002 so this time we were looking forward to the drive and the experience of becoming acquainted with the furthermost part in the United States and all the other Keys along the way.


Because we are spoiled Californians and have traveled up Pacific Coast Highway from Santa Barbara to San Francisco, we felt this drive down the Keys was not up to our expectations. Furthermore, as we arrived to Key West, Alec started throwing up (delayed reaction to sea sickness?) and it didn't stop until we left Key West. On Sunday when we arrived we (the adults) ate and then had to head straight to the Hotel, which by the way was a really nice place. Crowne Plaza, La Concha. A very quaint, centrally located, clean hotel in Key West. Alec just wanted to sleep and rest, so we drove 200 miles to go sleep and rest and become a little to acquainted with the inside of our room in the hotel.. Since all we did was drive and eat at Hard Rock Cafe. There are very few pictures to share today.
