The sunset from Sunset Key
This morning we went down town to visit the Southernmost point of the mainland US and have our picture taken there. Next we walked to a Butterfly consevancy for an interesting tour. After that we visited Ernest Hemmingway's house, it was very interesting to see the furnishings and many documents and books written by and about him. On the ground there are lots of six toed cats descendants of a six toed one given to Hemmingway when he was living here.
We had lunch at El Siboney, a local Cuban restaurant, Cuban sandwiches, platanos maduros, tostones, and Sangria all very good.

In the evening we took a boat to Sunset Key, a small island just off the coast, the Windham Hotel has a resort there, the restaurant is on the beach and is a prime spot to watch the sunset. The food was very good also.
Tomorrow morning we go back to Marathon, Ray and Tena drop us off at the boat and they go on to Lake Okeechobee for some bass fishing.
