Paul and I took a trip to BSA's Florida Seabase for a week of scout training. What a delight! We flew into Fort Lauderdale and drove down to the keys and stayed in Islamorada. The accommodations were bunkbeds, but the water was crystal clear. While he was in classes, I was out snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding.
There were a few of us couples and we enjoyed adventuring together.
We had to watch out for iguanas because they were everywhere. The water was shallow for hundreds of yards. If you fell out of a boat, it was no big deal.
We drove down to Key West so we could see Cuba. The fish cleaning station is attracting quite a bit of attention.
Islamorada is gorgeous, especially at sunset.
I'm not going in there.
But I'll feed some tarpon at Robbie's Marina.
This is Fort Zachary Taylor State Park. Construction of the fort began in 1845 as part of a mid-19th century plan to defend the southeast coast of the US through a series of forts after the War of 1812.
