22,000 km and as south as we can go!!!

This is a monumental stop on our adventure!  Key West is the farthest point south  on the Continental US, and that means that after this, we are heading home!!!                                               We watched the Sunset at Mallory Square, and it was quite spectacular!  We stopped earlier in the day at a beach and explored through the mangroves, and paths of sand that went out into the Caribbean Sea.  We could walk out for hundreds of metres and it was still only waist deep.

        The scenery along this highway is amazing!  We drove alongside the bridge from the movie True Lies (which just happened to  be on TV a couple of weeks ago.)                                            The water comes in colours that are hard to describe and there are tropical plants and flowers everywhere.  The gardens that I could grow......           Life moves at a slower pace here, and after the continual pace that we have been moving at, this is such a wonderful change!
