Yesterday, December 8, 2010, we arrived at our hotel located in Key West at 4:45 pm. However, we were too late to get to Duvall Street to watch the sunset. We thought we would not have any problems to watch the sunset next day.
Well, we experienced a different Key West. Thursday, December 9, 2010, was a windy and raining day.
I brought my little stuff animal named “Seattle” with me. But, I did not know that I also brought the rain from Seattle.
Our first stop today was the southernmost point. The point, actually built to resemble a buoy, stands at furthest south tip of Key West. The monument notes that Cuba is only 90 miles away. On the top of the monument is painted the logo of The Conch Republic. Twenty years ago, Key West, seeking to enhance its reputation as a free-wheeling, fun-loving, party without consequence kind of town, withdrew from the United States, declaring itself The Conch Republic.
Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum was our second stop. Ernest Hemingway Home is located in the heart of Old Town Key West. Ernest Hemingway lived and wrote here for more than ten years. There are approximately sixty cats live at the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum. About half of the cats at the museum are 6 toe cats, which means they have extra toes on their front feet and sometimes on their back feet as well.

Oh! We also saw chicken in Key West. Normally, we saw pairs of chicken roaming everywhere in Key West. We also heard roosters crow in the middle of the day. It is very interesting.
Key Lime Pie is very famous in Key West. We had Key Lime Pie. We also tried Key Lime tea, Key Lime chocolates, and Key Lime candy. Well, if you like Key Lime, Key West will be the place for you.
We saw Key Lime Pie stores and Cuban food restaurants everywhere. So, please do not leave Key West without tasting the famous Key Lime Pie and Cuban food. It is really unique in here.
Too bad we didn't have time for "Seattle" and "Monkey" to meet up. They'd have alot to talk about :) Donna P.S. Can't remember Google account so I'm anonymous.
