| Itinerary - `Sunset at Mallory Square` - absolute must at 7:15 pm on Friday night |
Only on Key West does the entire population migrate to one end of the town while the sun goes down. The oldest of Key West traditions is to pay homage to the fabulous, ever-changing sunsets by hanging out on the pier and watching the best free show on earth. Plus, the assemblage of cat tamers, psychics, contortionists, tight-rope walkers and musicians can't be beat.

19th century "wrecker" house and gardens furnished with period antiques and original Audubon engravings. Wrecking was THE career back in the day...wreckers saved drowing folks and salvaged foundering ships. Very lucrative.

| Conch Republic Independence Celebration, April 19-28 |
Didn't know that Key West was it's own separate country? Well, it's true. During the Keys tax revolt in the 70's (big news I tell ya), the Keys successfully seceded from the Union. Yep, my family even had a bumper sticker passport to prove it.
