Well, my title says it all. Rodney arrived Friday morning for our little Miami vacation. We decided that we wanted to take in some of the Miami "culture" and eat at a Cuban restaurant. It was very yummy, but it was very obvious that we were not getting the same service as the Spanish-speaking patrons. Rodney and I both loved how we felt so at home in the country of Miami.
On Saturday, we wanted to get closer to the American culture so we went closer to Cuban than Miami. We started our day only going to go to Key Largo to eat at a recommended seafood buffet called Whale Harbor. After eating, we decided to see how far we could go in an hour which turned into seeing how far we could go in another hour. Our original trip to Key Largo ended up taking us to Key West! We were there for about and hour. Rodney and I took pictures at the southern most spot in the U.S. We also went to Hogs Breath, which is where Hemingway spent a lot of his time. We didn't eat at Hogs Breath, but we did buy a few T-shirts and a hat.
I never thought I would say, "I am ready to go back to Texas."

You've essentially cured the mild hint of interest I had in visiting Miami :) How far of a drive is it from Miami to Key West? I'm sure it was beautiful, but that sounds like a serious haul!
The drive to Key West was about 7-8 hours round trip, but it was worth the drive. Once we got started, it really didn't feel like it was that far because it was really enjoyable. Rodney rented the most fabulous Sebring convertable; we were really stylin'!
