    50 minutes of "nothing"? Of "Groundhog Day"? And yet, it was fantastic and flew by in a second. Such a lovely video.

    Spent a LOT of time in the Keys in the 1970's drove across all of the old bridges, the 7-mile was tough after a long night of drinking. Stayed at Bahia Honda Park in the 1960's & 1970's and back then we were allowed to camp on the beach - ocean-side - right near the old bridge. Spent lots of time jumping from the old bridge. This place has a special place in my heart. Fiesta Key also had a great camping place at the KOA. As you said the Keys have stopped people from stopping along the roads and bridges which has taken much of the fun away. Keep up the good videos Robert.

      We’ve stayed at a family owned and run place called “The Ragged Edge” on Isla Morada several times. They have a lovely pool, you can fish from their dock all in all a great place to stay. Across the US1 is Founders Park, what a place to see those glorious sunsets. About 3-4 miles south is Whale Harbour, there’s a great dining place called “Wahoo’s”, have a Shrimp Po’ Boy.

    Thanks for the tour of Bahia Honda , The only time as was in the keys was in 1993 and I saw that park when driving by and thought how nice it looked , I have seen it in books and videos and it looks beautiful I was saddened by what hurricane Irma did to it. Would love to go there someday but I dont know , its not looking like its ever going to happen, the keys are so nice I just cant afford it so thanks for the videos cant wait for the next one safe travels my friend .

    I went to Bahia Honda with my family about 60 years ago. The campsites were so new at the time. The coral gravel was very clean and there were deep channels (where the shell rock had been excavated). We snorkeled and really enjoyed all the fish. The old Bahia Honda bridge was the only one back then. Same with the original Seven Mile Bridge. I visited both areas in 2003 or so and couldn't believe that Dad had driven across that narrow Seven Mile Bridge back then. It (like everything else) has changed greatly. I did take the trolley to Pidgeon Key and toured the museum. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure because it brought back many memories of easier times. The Keys are special and unique!

    I've driven that route, so many times. Watching your video makes me feel homesick. It's interesting that you mentioned the driftwood beach on Jekyll Isl. I've ridden horseback on that beach and through the maritime forest. About ten years ago, I rode my bike out to Pigeon Key. The pavement was buckled up, which means I hit a hump ever so many feet. So I bumped my way out there and back and consumed mass quantities of water along the way. I kind of wish you can stay on Pigeon Key. It's beautiful out there.

    For me, it's all about getting to my favorite beach for some bodyboard surfing. It's all about the surf, the salt water, the sand, the sun, the air and the views. I love to get in the surf and catch some small waves on the body board. I love the bodyboard surfing in Florida, the bodyboard surfing capital of the world. I live in North Florida two hours from St. Augustine. My favorite place is Anastasia Island and the beaches of St. Augustine Beach, Crescent Beach, Butler Beach and the Matanzas inlet. I think the beaches of Anastasia Island are the best in Florida because I am a bodyboard surfer and there no waves to ride on the Gulf coast. It's great that there are so many great beaches all around Florida because it keeps Anastasia Island from being overcrowded. But, I rarely go to the Gulf Coast, even though it is beautiful, because I need to ride the waves and feel the ocean water.

    Thanks for this video clip:) I have many fond memories of the Keys. Had lived in Florida for 10 years. Stayed at Bahia Honda a few times. Key West was and still is my home-base.I did the Key West Sun set celebration occasionally. Heard, these days if you get caught camping in your vehicle in Key West street, you can go to jail for that!!!! The Boathouse row was gone long time ago, given away to high rise!!! Back then I lived off my converted VW bus. I lived in there for 7 years. In 2000's, if you pass by Causeway 528 to Cape Canaveral, the last bridge the left, you would see my VW and some of my Hobo friends there. Now the change came in late 2006 with the better life style to live. I have been living in the Tropical beach paradise of Thailand. There are many absolutely beautiful, isolated places you can camp out as long as you want, with the mother nature all surround you, without cop bang on your door in the middle of the night. The cost of living is a lot cheaper than in the States. And we have socialized heath cares for all Thai citizen and legal residents:) No wonder why there are so many foreigners from near and far come and taking up the places as their second home, Americans, Frances, Swedish's, Russians and so on!!!!
