More Keys

As we made our way back "up" the Keys from Key West, we stopped at several scenic places. Bahia Honda is always a favorite. When we first visited the Keys more than thirty years ago, we spent an afternoon being bounced around by the waves at Bahia Honda. We sat in the shallow water up to our waists and let the incoming breakers knock us silly. For some reason, we found that to be fun.

This time we just looked out at the water and enjoyed it's turquoise beauty.





A section of the old bridge which once led from Bahia Honda south to the next key is still standing, an apocalyptic image against the hazy sky.



This iguana, lazing in a tree, almost escaped notice.



Next up was another favorite - Sombrero Beach in Marathon. This is a great place to take a dip in the ocean or work on your tan.







Finally, we stopped for the evening at Calusa Campground and Marina in Key Largo where we caught a nice sunset.





And then it was "farewell" to the Keys.
