Jeff's Photos Round Two
We had a great time with our friend Jeff, and packed as much as we could into his short stay. We wish he could have stayed longer; it's always so much fun to share this place and all its adventures with our friends from home. We usually stay in Key West for most of January, so start planning for next year if you'd like to experience Life in Paradise with Heather and George. I can guarantee you ultimate satisfaction, but not a tan.
Here are some of Jeff's photos that he took with his Nikon D80; what a great camera.
Where will this flipping man land? You will have to wait for the video to upload to find out...
We went to Boca Chica, which is just a short drive from Key West, and where the Navy has their Top Gun training. We were in the right spot to watch about 6 pairs of fighter jets take off. A video may be up soon.
Some beachcombing discoveries included:
a lobster,
a sea slug,
a tower of rocks,
a castle, (more photos on this later)
and a large hole. George was distracted by some old glass he found, and my attempts to bury him were thwarted by Jeff's camera. Can't have any witnesses...
We drove up to Bahia Honda where you can walk up on the old train (and later highway) bridge. It was very windy up there...
I'm a plane!
My attempts to take off were almost successful.
Can you imagine two lanes of traffic on this narrow road?

We also toured Ft. Zach; Watch out for that ghost!
And got some close ups of our iguana friends. They haven't moved in a few days; too chilly for them.
