Saturday morning we woke up early picked up the car and dropped off the dogs. We actually got on the road before 9! That's really good since Dan got home late Friday.
Our first real stop was at Jimmy John's. One of the few fast food places I can eat.
Yum a #14. Best sandwich ever!!
We lucked out and really didn't have any traffic coming down US 1 from Florida City to Key Largo. That's where we usually get stuck.
As we were coming south on US 1 we started to see the Key Largo bridge. I'll be back in two weeks to run the Key Largo Bridge Half Marathon. It was kind of nice to see the bridge and be able to judge how hard it will be to run up.
We were able to check into our condo early! We stay at CocoPlum Beach & Tennis Club. It's a great place to stay. It has a full size kitchen, which is great for me. The place is dated, but that doesn't really matter to me. I love the fact that it is on the beach.
Sunday we woke up had breakfast and coffee and started our morning adventure. We wanted to stay in Marathon. We drove out toward the airport and our first stop was the EAA Air Museum. It's small but they do have two aircraft you can tour. They have a DC3 and Beech 18.
We drove through the old airport! My husband flew into this airport in 1983 back when they had commercial service.
Next stop was Crane Point, but they were closed. So we headed out for Sombrero Beach. WOW it was a beautiful park with a beautiful beach! And it's dog friendly!
We drove out to the old seven mile bridge.

We ended our day by laying on the beach with a beer!
Monday we went to the Turtle Hospital. It is a great place to visit if you are in the area!
We finished our day by laying on the beach again!
We had a great time! Just love visiting The Keys. I'll be back in just a few days to run the Key Largo Bridge Half Marathon.
Have you ever visited The Keys?
