Lazy Lakes RV Resort, Sugarloaf Key, Fl: This morning dawned a sparkling, sunny day. But cool. Headed to Key West and parked at the Old Town garage and walked down Eaton Street to the Tropic Cinema. Saw “Up In The Air” with George Clooney. Of the four movies we've seen since we’ve been in the Keys, this was our least favorite. There were some great one-liners, but it was very poignant in a way. After the movie we had a couple of hours to kill before the home tour so we walked down Whitehead to the Key West Speedway and Mike did a couple of races. Came in first on one of them. Then we headed off to the home tour which started at 5:00. Armed with the GPS, warm jackets, and the headlight from my bike, we started out walking. On the tour there were three homes in old town and two homes around the Flagler area. Five wonderful homes. My favorite was a one bedroom one bath next to the cemetery tucked down at the end of a neat little walking path. The owners of this cute little bungalow used to live in NYC near the World Trade Center. We did a lot of walking which felt good. And we discovered a new little restaurant on Margaret St. which we’re going to make a reservation for a New Year's Eve dinner. Back home and crashed.
Tucked back at the end of this beautiful walking path lies a well kept secret--an old 1918 cottage that has been transformed into a Manhattan apartment combining Asian, urban, and Key West motifs.
