Caitlin (friend from college) flew into Raleigh. Karen and I went to pick her up after a day of driving and hiking in Shenandoah National Park.
October 20
We drove from the NC/SC border (Little Pee Dee State Park) to Hilton Head and then down to Miami. We stopped in Savannah for some pecan pie, but totally struck out.
October 21
We sat on the beach at our hotel in Miami. We pretty much only left for food. Karen and I got pretty burned, but Caitlin seemed to fare much better. A movie from Red Box, and super chill day was complete.

We went over to the Everglades to look for some crocodiles and some fun birds. Well, the bird watching was less of a draw. We did see some crocs and went canoeing from the ocean to a lake in some gnarly wind. We tried to go to Biscayne National Park, but it closed at 5:30 PM :(

We went to Biscayne in the morning and I went snorkeling and saw some fishies, but mostly just sea grass as we didn't have the time/resources to get out to the coral reef part of the park. Then we drove down to Key West. It was a crazy/gorgeous drive. A couple more snorkeling fails and we decided to just BBQ on the beach and wait for the sunset. Then we went to go find some legit key lime pie.

This is legit. I don't know how you always manage to get the worst/best sunburns. Suuuuups jealous of these travels! Say 'Hi' to Caitlin and Karen for me!
