We're back from the Keys and we must say it was different than we expected. The views are astonishing, the islands are so beautiful and serene with the blue water and green Mangrove islands. The people in Key West are very laid back and it looks like their favorite thing to do is sitting in pubs and smoking whatever is available at the moment.
Many of the locals we saw had something strange looking pupils and the streets smelled funny. All in all we didn't fall for this town's vibe.
Another hilarious fact is that they have chickens running freely in the streets

We spent 3 hours in Key West (aka Conch Republic for their secession from the US in 1982) observing loads of tourists and free spirits and then we drove back to the main land. The campgrounds prices were ridiculously high, sometimes higher than a mid-range hotel room.
On the way back we saw some beautiful Mangrove islands of all sizes. They start as a single tree tiny island and then grow to make huge islands that nourish fish underneath and serve as a good place for birds to hide.
QUIZ ANSWER
The false sentence is the first one. Florida's state animal is not an alligator, it's Florida panther !
A new quiz will be published soon.

Sure - it's going to snow for three full days here and you just HAVE to post a picture of beautiful beach and palm trees. You suck. :-) By the way - we couldn't get tickets to Florida because the Iowa Hawkeyes are going to play in a bowl game there over the New Year....people were buying their plane tickets months ago in speculation. They suck too!
נראה לי קטן עליכם להגיח להבאנה, קובה.
מה זה קרוב. 170 ק"מ בסירה קטנה ואתם שם.
אני נהנה מכל רגע מהבלוג שלכם.
