Our Key West Adventure: Day 3

Day 3 in Key West started much like day 2--with a trip to Bahia Honda State Park for a day at the beach. We arrived around 9:30 a.m., and got to do some exploring up and down the beach before it got crowded.



 These branches were covered in seashells. Brad added one that he found!





 Look! We're on a log in the ocean. :)


On the way back to the house, we drove through the Key Deer Refuge to see the Blue Hole. The Blue Hole is an abandoned limestone quarry which is filled with water and home to lots of wildlife. We were able to spot these guys not far from the shore:



And  we were able to see these Key Deer before heading back to the house:




After a quick change, we headed down to Key West to catch the sunset at Mallory Square: 





Brad's Aunt and Uncle took great care of us while we were there! We had a delicious dinner waiting for us when we got home, prepared by Uncle Gabby.

 Stone crab legs!


Lobster tail!

We also had some (un-pictured) Key West Pinks (shrimp) as an appetizer. Everything was absolutely wonderful, and so fresh! After dinner, we enjoyed a low-key evening at the house, hanging out and spending quality time together. 

Catch ya later with our day 4 adventure!
