Today is the engineer's birthday. And while I can't be with him to celebrate, I've been reminiscing about the birthday trip we took last year.
The Florida Keys are all spectacularly beautiful, but one in particular is near and dear to my heart. Bahia Honda is unique in that the entire key is a state park. Which means no tacky tourist places, no high-rises on the beach, and lots of camp sites.
Not to mention the fact that it's a (sub-) tropical paradise.
The water is crystal clear and comes in about a thousand shades of turquoise.
The beaches are white sand (although a little heavy on the seaweed last year, darn hurricanes).
And there's no shortage of shady palms to relax under.
And it's only a short trip over the causeway to Key West if you really need your tourist trap fix. (The shiny new causeway on the left, which doesn't have giant holes in it, I swear.)
It's pretty much the most restful vacation spot ever.
Don't you want to find out for yourself?
