We were meeting Mark up at his house around 11 so we spent the morning cleaning up and getting ready for the long haul home.
Mark, Tracy, and their 2 boys, were great. Thank you for the hospitality. And always such a plus to experience things as a local.
The Florida Keys…now I get it…we were right…you need a boat. Well obviously not need, but you know what I mean. It’s an entirely different experience on a boat.
What a fun boat ride. Mark was zipping around a 30’+ Contender like it was a sports car in only a few feet of water avoiding/navigating coral reefs all around us. It was impressive as well entertaining.
The water is beautiful here. So warm, clear, tropical. We had fun sitting on the sand bar, playing catch, and yes even skin boarding on the sandbar as the tide went out. Isabella and I gave it a go and happy to report we did not make complete fools of ourselves.
What an epic day. Thanks again Mark, Tracy, Jacob, & Shane. We had so much fun. And a treat to have a locals day and see how it’s done.
We finished with a quick skate up the road, trying out Edwin’s kayak, and dip in the pool.
