Key West Date: Tuesday 1999-07-06 Written: Wednesday 1999-07-07

After spending the night in Macon we drove towards the coast. We had heard that Savannah was a beatiful city and wanted to see it.

Now there was the question about Florida and how far south we should go. Being four drivers, we decided to take turns and drive non stop all night so we could meet sunrise at Key West, the southernmost part of the USA. And we made it! Rubbing 18 hours of driving out of our eyes we reached Key West at 6.30AM. Sadly the sky was cloudy and the water was polluted with bacterias so bathing was prohibited by the Department of Health, so we stayed only for about 30 minutes feeling the smooth white sand between our toes and taking pictures of the rising sun above open water.
