Tom & Ali's Florida Trip Video-Ch. 3-Key West-Other (Party) End of Duval St.-(And more picturesque photos of Key West & its points of interest):

So here's the third installment of the video of our Florida trip. As the title states, this part of the video is footage from our time spent in Key West (mostly of Duval Street on the other/party end of it). A special thanks again to Peter for all his help with editing this video, he did a spectacular job (he edits videos for his real job too, so he's really good)! Also, we put a few picturesque photos of Key West and some of its points of interest that we found online below the video for your viewing pleasure. So, here you go and enjoy! =-)

Be sure to pause the music at the bottom of the blog before starting the video.




Pictures of Key West and some of its points of interest:


Shot Of the Episcopal Church on Duval Street as seen in our video


Shot of Key West's Lighthouse. They intentionally built it short to increase the likelihood of ships crashing on the reefs here. Ship salvaging was one of the first and primary sources of revenue and job/economy growth in Key West. That's why so many movies like Fools Gold are shot here, because there really are several shipwrecks still out in the ocean to discover and scavenge.

No way, we wish! After we looked through our photos of the trip, there really weren't many of them. We kind of forgot to take pictures on this trip and for the most part just used the video camera (Ali had just given us her old one and Tom was overly fixated on using it). But, we wanted to give everyone a good idea of how pretty it is down there, which the video doesn't quite make obvious. So, any of the pictures we are attaching to the posts of our Florida video are just some of the better picturesque photos that we found online when we were deciding where to visit on our Florida trip. The only photos we took can be found on our June 4th Post and on our slide show.

Loved the pics, having lived there I can attest that salvaging ships wasn't or isn't the only unethical business there. Tom, I got your email I will get back to you soon.

Well, they are great pictures and now I don't have to be jealous of the camera that I thought was taking the pictures!
