We left the hotel this morning in Miami and went back to the airport to pick up a car. Apparently summer in Florida is the time all the folks from South America come to warm up from their winter. So the rental car places were almost out of cars. We drove south and got on Route 1 which goes from Florida City eventually to Key West. We passed Key Largo, Duck Key, and a zillion other keys. In the beginning the roadway looked like any other beachy road-way - kind of ugly Pismo Beach. After a while it got more rural and we could get a gander at the fact that the place we were driving was less than a mile wide. We discovered that our car doors couldn't lock. We were supposed to use a fob on the key - it didn't do anything. We COULD lock the doors from the inside, but the key we had wouldn't unlock the door from the outside. What a weird deal. There was a Hertz Rental car place at Key West, so we traded our unlocking car for one that would lock. It's a better car in the end - more pep. We spent tonight wandering around Key West. It's a fun city. People gather on Mallory Square to watch the sunset over the furthest southern point in the US. Here's some photos.
