I know it seems like all we did in Key West was eat and drink, and we did.. a LOT, but we did do a little more than that, too ;) One of our first stops was to the Southernmost Point in the USA. There was a long line to get your picture taken with the concrete buoy, which we gladly stood on because God knows we love cliché pictures. The rest of our time in Key West was spent admiring all of the gorgeous trees, flowers and little side streets and alleyways. We spent an afternoon on Mallory Square watching the nightly sunset celebration street performers as well as a beautiful sunset.
Although we went to the Southernmost Point marker, after looking at a map we realized it wasn't really true. So, before we left we made sure to stop Fort Zachary Taylor Park. It is not only slightly further south than the Southernmost Point, it's also further west and we had to get that pin on our map. First, we went to the actual fort which was once used to keep pirates at bay. Our stop at the fort was pretty brief, because once again the Key West heat was getting to us and also making my camera malfunction.
Next, we drove over to the park's beach. The beautiful white sand and 86 degree crystal clear water paired with the bright blue skies results in waaaaaay too many pictures.
