Fort Lauderdale

This picture is Todd and I in Key West at the Southernmost Point in the Continental USA.

We drove to Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday and went to the beach yesterday morning and managed to spend a few hours in the sun before the rain started. Although it has been hotter than average, it has now rained more than usual, with floods in the streets and a tornado watch as I sit and write this. We planned to spend the day in Miami and here in Aventura, we have decided to turn around and go back, simply too rainy and horrible driving conditions.

Key West was a great day - lots of shops and walking, a beautiful day! We ended our day in the town at Mallory Square where many go to watch the famous Key West sunset. Of course we stopped by Margaritaville on Duval Street for a few frozen concoctions and a plate of volcano nachos...mmm! We stopped at the Cracked Conch Cafe in Marathon again for the boys to get a snack for the boys - conch fingers and key lime pie - I only had the pie as some of you know I am chicken about shellfish and won't try it. The boys found it tasted like calamari.

Almost time to head out and drive through the rain some more. Take care!
