On our way to our second stop Key Largo stopped at Long Key for a hike, the first real one of our trip, felt great. There's not a lot of sweeping scenery because everything is so flat but the lush forest/jungle/wet lands with mangroves everywhere is really powerful and alive. The sea spreading out in every direction, the sound of the water, really peaceful. It's a place where you can really feel the life, the growth.
The place were staying at in Key Largo had some kayaks you could use so we went out for a paddle, Nicole's first, to practice a bit for Biscayne and The Everglades. Really nice to get on the water. Growing up my family canoed a ton and it felt great to get back into the rhyme of it and Nicole took to it like a duck to water.
Like Key West, not a whole lot going on in Key Largo(unless you want to get drunk at the beach or on a boat) although thankfully there was a bit more elbow room. Our place had a great view of the sunset.
