Marathon

No,I haven't started running , it's a town half way down the Florida Keys... Key West being the last and craziest town  on this string of islands ..or cays in espanol and of course the Americans re-spelt it with a K .....cos that's what they do. If you manage to chuck the Poms out and get on with your own thing , you can do that. I think the name ( Marathon ) has something to do with the railroad that was built down here and this was the spot they started a 7 mile bridge .The highways all over Florida have incredible lengths of raised roadways (bridges really )on account of the large areas of swamp.....everglades......air boats .....alligators ...etc.
Anyway I haven't taken any photos yet as we are going to stay here for the next 2 months.....I think...
so here's a pic from the last time we were here.... just a perfectly normal looking girl from a market down the road...just to add a bit of colour to the page.(see...I still put a u in color cos we didn't chuck the Poms out )(just teach 'em how to play cricket )
(that's for Phils benefit )
I did do a blog 2 or 3 years ago about the Keys ,when we were here with Perry and Susan but will tell more stories as they happen .New years eve in Key West should be ..like..totally awesome man.Meanwhile,we are here .It's winter and all them thar Yankees are getting their butts froze clean off while we have blue skies ,80ish degrees ( 25ish Celsius ) down here in the bayous .
I will go back to Isla Mujeres ( blog wise ) and carry on with our travelogue very soon as we have perfect wifi a calm anchorage and time on our hands .Bye for now from Boot Key Harbour....all right Harbor.Duh!
