Key West part 4

 To give an idea of the price level in Key West:

This small house is for sale for $425.000,-.

 It does have an extension....

 The electricity may need some fixing...

But there's a gorgeous bouganvilla in the back...

It did put me back on the ground.

Key West Part 3

 Marvellous bouganvillas blooming everywhere in Key West.

 There are so many beautiful flowers,

unfortunately don't know the names of them all.

 Bouganvilla alley.

 Bright blue sky and yellow flowers,

a nice combination, isn't it!

 The grey of the fence gives a great contrast 

to the strong pink flowers.

 A bold and beautiful rooster walking free in a garden,
and not only in a garden but on the streets as well.

On the way to Key West there are so many funny 

looking mail boxes.

This manatee one is on of the most popular one.

Some Art

 Wow, what a shoe!

Visited 48th Miami Art festival in Key Biscayne.

 The previous shoe is a painting,

this one is s print with crystals.

 All kinds of paintings there.

 Fancy glass sculptures.

 This and the painting below are my favourite ones.

They are made by a young artist Jade A Brown from Miami Beach.

Didn't buy any painting, sculpture nor food there

(crab cakes were sold there too - my favourites!)

but a pair of earrings.

 Lumina Design's earrings made of

Peruvian opal, Chalcedony, Turquoise, Apatite and Crystal.

The ocean colours are so beautiful!

Key West Part 2

 Lunch at Kelly's

301 Whitehead Street at Caroline Street

 Came here to eat conch fritters

as heard that they do the best ones here.

Do not leave Key West without trying conch!

Conch is a shellfish,

the one where you can hear the sound of the ocean.

Key West = the Conch Republic

 Big and meaty with some spices.

(the best conch fritters ever are the ones they do 

at Harbour Lodge in Hope Town, Elbow Cay in the Bahamas!)

 Crab cakes were not on the menu,

but got them anyway!

My favourites! Here with slices of pineapple.

 House salad with green leaves, strawberries and nuts

was extremely delicious.

 Got there just in time - at 1pm it was already packed.

The plastic chairs is not so nice idea,

but in laid-back Key West it doesn't really bother.

 The house was formerly the first home of Pan Am Airlines.

The first round-trip ticket to Havana was sold here in 1927.

Caroline Street is nice, leafy, quiet street.

On Whitehead Street opposite Kelly's is 

Harry S Truman's The Little White House.

Hemingway's home is also on Whitehead Street,

the street ends at the Southernmost Point.

Pro-Nails

 It's been long and painful way since January

when I decided to get my own nails back 

after 13 years of tips, gels and acrylic ones.

Sally Hansen is promising salon-perfect,

beautiful nails at home.

Mademoiselle by Essie

 Cuticle Eraser + Balm with green tea and cucumber

- removes dry cuticles and moisturisers in 1 step

Smooth and Strong Base Coat

- use it alone or under nail polish

Ultra-Wear Top Coat

 After seeing this ad in Elle went straight away to CVS.

Miracles do happen, don't they?

Cupcake Car

 Peace, Love, Cupcake.

That's a my type of car!

Been at driving school twice, 

yet not having the feeling for driving...

unfortunately!
