Key West, Friday, 2 October

Breakfast served at 8.30 – enjoyed a little sleep in!  About 10 we left, having spoken to the office lady, Ramsey, about tickets for the Old Town Trolley tour.  We had to walk a little way to the trolley stop, they come about every half hour.  Did the tour around the whole of Key West – heard the history and interesting tales…. ‘Did you know that at this point on the map that you are closer to Cuba than to a Walmart?’

Ended the tour back at Mallory Square to do a spot of shopping – Lesley and I bought locally made leather ‘flip flops’ for $20 and a few other things.  Lunch at the Conch Republic Seafood Company, right in the harbor where the fishing boats had returned from their morning trips and were filleting fish and feeding the tarpon.  Some impressive and fairly big fishing vessels there….
