Thursday morning we relocated the RV from Key Largo to Key West which was about a 90 mile trip across 47 bridges, the longest being over 7 miles. With the wind coming across the bridges connecting the various islands it was an interesting ride and driving the RV. After setting up and having lunch, Tina and I took a tour of Key West, and took on more of the city and history. Then we headed back to the RV for a nap since we were planning on listening to live music that evening along the historic and famous Duvall Street. We ate at a Cuban restaurant, listened to a great band at Sloppy Joes, the famous hangout of Hemingway, and also several outdoor music venues. Today we left the Keys but before we did we had Key Lime pie, which as it’s origins in the FL Keys. We packed up and headed to the Everglades National Park and setup the RV and unlike other places we’ve been we’re off the grid here with no electricity or water, with barely a cellphone signal. What a great place though with lots of privacy and the closest we’ve come to primitive camping. Tomorrow we explore as much of the Everglades as we can (and luckily the mosquitoes have not been bad – yet).
