Ah! And the weather has been wonderful! Some days are almost too perfect with 83 degrees and just a hint of a breeze. Some days, the water on the Gulf side looks like glass all day long! Ah! Gorgeous! Well, to make you feel a little better. It wasn’t completely perfect. Yes, the humidity was a little high, but who cares when the sun is shining and the water is beckoning for us to dive in!
We have been exploring different kayak launching areas on the other Keys. We are always hoping to come across different sea life and wild life during our kayaking time. So far we have seen a lot of birds, a couple of sharks, stingrays, barracudas, and one dolphin. We uploaded a few more pictures to Key West Critters. We’ll keep looking. After all we have plenty of time for exploring. We started a new album Key West Kayaking with photos from our kayaking trips. There are only a few, but we promise to add to the album as we get more photos.
On 7 Nov, Key West hosted a Power Boat and Super Boat Race. Every other day, there were three races with boats from different power/speed classes. On the first day, we went with the idea that we would not be able to see the race that well without binoculars. Boy, were we ever surprised to have the boats racing by so close that the spectators could almost feel the rooster-tails splashing them! If we stood right on the shore, the waves made by the power boat’s wake would get our feet. It was a WOW!! moment! Needless to say we were back for the next two race days. We took advantage of the multiple races by viewing them from different locations. We took so many pictures that Sandy filled her microchip (holds 500 pics) twice. Don’t worry we only uploaded a little over 100 photos in Power and Super Boats album.
As always, pics and clickable links are above.
