Day 5 (March 19th, 2015)

Last full day in paradise today so we opted for relaxing all day. We drove down to the supposed southernmost point of the continental US and took the obligatory picture next to the marker. Then we headed over a couple blocks to Southernmost Café, which was recommended by Kevin as a great breakfast spot. We had a bit of a wait but then were seated. Mike and Greta both had shrimp benedict with cilantro Hollandaise, Jim had a shortrib & tomato quiche, and Trina had an omelet (I think). All the food was outstanding!

Then back to the Hyatt Beach Resort for a day in the sun. We hung out between the pool and the channel to the Gulf of Mexico for the afternoon. Whether under the cabanas, reading in the pool, in a hammock or sitting in chairs under the mangrove trees, it was an excellent way to relax. Jim & Trina saw a big iguana in the trees at one point – it’s such an odd thought to have them just APPEAR out of no where! We went over to the Tiki Hut for late light lunch. Shrimp was the catch of the day so Jim had them prepared in tacos and Mike & Greta both had sandwiches. Trina wanted a chicken wrap but they were sold out so she had to opt for a different item. The food was prepared in a little truck next to the tiki hut in the parking lot. The food was excellent and it’s a shame that it wasn’t open past 6 pm at night.

Then off to our sunset cruise. We’d wanted to go with Danger Charters, as they did such an excellent job with our snorkel & kayak cruise, but that was already booked up so we went with Fury instead. We headed back to Old Town & the Harbor, got in an hour of wandering/shopping, and then back to the boats. It was a huge three-level catamaran that took us out. We actually ran into a few people from our snorkel cruise; they, like us, wanted to go with Danger but it was booked. This was nice too. The sunset was spectacular, and drinks were offered the entire time.

That night, we made a quick drive over to El Siboney, a Cuban restaurant that had been recommended to us by a few people PLUS was listed on nearly every “best restaurants on Key West” list on-line. And no one was wrong. We all got different versions of meat or fish prepared with Cuban flavors, and served with yellow rice and beans. As in Aruba, the Cuban food was the best meal of the trip.
