Day Two in the Keys

So out and about, walking around Duval St on a Monday night. Taking it all in, it is very much a chilled out place, although the streets come to life once the sun goes down. The closer you are towards the marina at the end of Duval St, the closer you are to the action, so it seemingly tapers off the further you walk down.

Some dinner was had (an entire post to Conche Fritters is a must read), some jumbo sized cocktails were consumed and then we headed home.

Waking up feeling strangely fine, we organised some stuff for day three (Wednesday) and then spent time at the National Park beach, Fort Zachory Taylor. A couple of little rock formations to swim out to, and the sun shining long and hard. Prior to the swim, we got our tourist on and headed to the landmark that shows the southern most point on continental USA. How it's still continental USA when you've travelled over a good 15 islands to get there is still beyond me, but nonetheless, obligatory photo was taken (and attached).

Tues night, again we hit up Duval St and some of the various nightspots. Drinking is very much a way of life down in the keys. Not only is drinking allowed on the streets, it is encouraged. They serve you in plastic cups and encourage you to top up your drink before you leave the bars. Some more conche fritters were eaten, and due to it being a Tuesday, and also considering that we had to wake up early for our Ultimate Adventure on the Wednesday, we headed home around 12:30.
