Hanging 'round the house

Victor took a dip in the saltwater swimming enclosure, which was pretty deep, and too murky for his snorkeling mask to be useful.


Birds seen around the cottage and its neighborhood...love the Laughing Gulls.





Can you see the pelicans, below? Victor's faves.

Turtle safety

We got to feed the turtles. :)
This was at the injured-bird facility. Assuming the turtles were somehow limited.

Touring Key West

Random sights...the Conch Tour Train


A sandal manufactory


The hotel where Victor stayed in 1998. I say this hotel is not the one that he identified to me earlier in our stay.

Freely wandering at the sanctuary

We don't have a sense of whether these birds were injured. They were at the sanctuary and were, obviously, not disturbed by humans.












Our guess is that the chickens, at least, are feral. Feral chickens are everywhere in Key West! It was startling for Victor in his first encounter with one. He was sure that he was mistaken when he saw a rooster wandering in a drive-up teller lane.

Mangrove Mama's

We've been back often enough that we've had all three meals here.
