The weather we had in the keys was the best of the trip yet. Sunny, warm and very little rain.  Check out the BLOG!

Our site at Key Largo Kampground, pretty tight quarters.

Just enough space to put the awning out.

They had some nice waterfront sites with their own Tiki huts but too expensive for us. We were already paying $59/night for a basic site, they wanted another $15/night for waterfront

They had an great, big, heated pool though and the weather was gorgeous the week we were here so we were actually able to enjoy it every day!!!

They had the best key lime pie here...I could easily get addicted to that stuff!

All I can say is “WHY”??? Who lost a bet???

This is the southern most beach in the USA

Thought it was cool how they built the fence around the palms.

This was our best fishing day yet in Marathon. Ended up catching 5 in total, this was the first one, a Cravelle Jack. Tasty!

P1270022

This was one of 3 spanish mackerel we caught. Dave caught another a little bigger than this one and a much smaller one. Not the best tasting, kinda oily!

P1290014

A friend told us that this was the nicest beach he’d ever been too....he must have been there in 1992 because it’s sure not the best one anymore. The proof is in the following pics

P1290015

Plus the day we went, the freaking beaches were closed...figures, it was actually hot enough to swim, just a little disappointing because we were hoping to snorkel

Sorry Petey, not even close!

Mikey just loved his new dead fish friends....especially their “lovely” perfume.

IMG_6745

The dead fish plus all the seaweed made the beach pretty disgusting. Not sure if it’s typically like this now or we just happened to hit a pretty bad stretch. If it was clean, I could see how it would be the best beach.

The beach in Punta Cana, Dominican was way nicer than this!

Sombrero beach in Marathon was one of the nicest we found on the keys
