It was pretty hard to leave Key West. It was such a fun place, and for me, it has such rich and significant military history dating back to the fight with pirates of the Caribbean following the war of 1812 to WWII and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
We attended the Homestead FL Ward which was a Spanish and English speaking Ward. They handed out headsets and radio receivers so that you could hear everything in the language you understood. One Sacrament prayer was in Spanish the other in English. Two talks were in English and one in Spanish. One funny thing was that the wife who spoke in English put on a headset to understand her husband's talk in Spanish. It looked like they might have been married for about 50 years.
We then stayed at Homestead AFB and caught this sunset out our front window.
The next photo is of some of the scenery we saw driving up the Florida coast. We had a blast and got out and into the water several times. We enjoyed Miama, stayed in Fort Lauderdale and had an incredible Philly Cheese there, stayed at Satellite Beach, got onto Cape Canaveral - albiet not very far since I don't have the special use badge and stayed at NAS Jacksonville, FL the birthplace of the Blue Angels in 1946.
