DSC01178 (LEAVE FOR KEY WEST - left house by 7:30 for noon flight, southwest.  Watched Zero Dark Thirty on the way down.  Almost finished it.  Got rental car - 2013 Mustang Convertible in Red.  Drove south along Hwy 1 to Miami then headed to A1A along the ocean, from North Beach down to South Beach.  held up in traffic for a monstrously huge Boat show - 86 degrees with the top down!  drove through Miami downtown and headed south towards Key West, but got caught in rush hour traffic - took hours!  great drive though.  got to Key West just after sun down.  checked into our hotel, then down to Duval Street - didnt really know where we were going, went to Willie's, late dinner.  put up a $1 bill.  back to hotel.  here's me driving the convertible!!  not sure what the thing sticking out of my head is...)

IMG_4614
IMG_4615 (OK - so we made it to Key West...  not sure why the pictures in between stopped...  by the time we left Miami it was sunset - thought we had some amazing sunset pictures but I guess not.  We drove out to Key West in the dark since it took so damn long to get through Miami, so we didn't get to see the 7 mile bridge or anything else cool...  we checked into our hotel, drove down to Duval Street and found a place to eat - Willie's...  oh, and we stopped in Miami to buy me sandals and both those shirts!)
