49 miles
4 hours, 40 minutes
Woke up and had breakfast while watching a beautiful sunrise. What an amazing camp site - we both agreed this place will go onto our top 10 favorite places in the world.
Had another amazing day of riding - we've had so many days of headwinds this trip that it's been extra special to get some tailwinds these last few days.
A big part of today was biking over the 7 mile bridge. The road conditions weren't all that bad - even with lots of traffic. We took lots of pictures - mostly of the old bridge. The first 2 miles is still accessible but beyond that your in for a jump and a swim.
Part of the day we went through a deer preserve - it was interesting because as it shows in the picture the fence is huge but the deer in the preserve are the smallest in the world (the female is the same size as a golden retriever).
Saw a bunch of iguanas on the side of the road - that was really cool. They are huge! With the tail the ones we saw were 3.5 feet long. After all those years of Michael having lizards I'm glad we never had those - they look mean! I startled one of them - he ran off into the bushes - I was surprised at how fast he was.
We are staying the night in an RV park about 20 miles from Key West and are excited to ride there tomorrow. Although that's with mixed feelings - this trip has been great...
Here are some pictures from today...
