I learned from these 2 nice retirees on my plane ride home that Miami has 2 seasons; wet & dry.The dry is from Nov - April ish and the wet is April - Nov ish. So, somedays we were greeted by crazy lightening and thunder & other days rain & other days sun. It kept us on our toes.
On Monday we took a tour to Key West. It was a long bus ride (3.5 hours each way), but pretty cool to see all the keys. There are 37 in all (I think!?) and the last one that we spent the day at (Keywest) is 90 miles for Cuba & the farthest point south in the US (I think!?).
The rainy drive to the Keys
Super cute neighborhoods
Overcast....beach still tannin'!
Super yummy mexican food
Ever wonder where Key Lime Pie came from? Key West!
This was our walk to the beach every morning.
Coffee Bar @ Nespresso Boutique
Beautiful Nespresso Machines
Espresso + Vanilla Ice Cream = Heaven!
All in All it was a fantastic vacation with some good friends, beautiful beaches, and great, hot weather. I am totally missing the relxation, sleeping in, & sunshine! I've learned that taking vacas to sunny spots is a MUST when you live in Western Washington. But, if there's one thing better than all of this, it is coming home to my baby after being away. Here's what was bursting out of my heart on the plane ride home...
Zach,
I used to like airplanes, airports, looking out at a new city, laying my head down on pillows of different hotels in different places all the time. I used to love vacationing in beautiful places with new sites to see, but all that has changed because half of me is always with you. And now adays my flight home is even more exciting than my flight away. And my favorite view will always be your face on our bed in our home in our city. There is nothing I love more than that.
Love, Aim.

I love it! You are such a beautiful young lady Aimee! Zach did good!!! Sounds like you had lots of fun on vacation. We've been to key west a few times and I love it, it's one of those places where you can be who you are (even a weirdo like me) and not care or worry about it! Glad your home safe and sound in the arms of my little Zach attack!
Thanks Aunt Shelley! Yes, we had a ton of fun!
