Journey with a destination
I am opening up with my presentation
In 1976, I took a Greyhound Bus trip to Key West, Florida
It was from Miami Beach, Florida
It was my Grandmother and I being on this trip
It was the Greyhound Bus and the Driver being our guide
So sit back and enjoy the ride
We started from Miami Beach, and made a stop in Homestead, Florida
Then we were on our way being 4 Hours across Highway one
So we were moving across a One Lane highway in both directions
It was the latest highway bridge being a full stretch
There were two bodies of waters on both sides, Atlantic Ocean and Gulf Of Mexico
One was fresh water and the other salt water
Both bodies of water didn’t come together in mix
That was the way nature had it fixed
We were narrated throughout about the various Florida Keys
All this in the height of summer being hot with the temperature being 101
But the bus was air conditioned so we were comfortable from the hot sun
I witnessed and observed Flying Fish
No I wasn’t thinking of them being my dish
That was definitely nothing that I would ever wish
Hot as it was, we journey on
We tried our best to remain strong
We finally arrived at our destination of Key West
The name alone says it best
A striving town for sure
The beauty and galore no one would ever ignore
You could see the in the distance, the island of Nassau in the Bahamas
I observed the native citizens moving around
Key West had some very historical sights
One particular was the famous Author, Ernest Hemmingway House who wrote the book “For Whom the Bell Tolls” along with many other novels
I actually read that book in college and did a critical analysis and got an A
So through the house we covered
It was through each room discovered
It was a fun filled day
I just enjoyed my stay
Think on Key West in being your next getaway.
