Well we ‘could’ have got off to a good start this morning, as we were up quite early, but there was no rush as we hadn’t got far to go, couldn’t book in until 1pm and there was a rather strong wind blowing.

Having said that there has been a strong wind blowing all the time we have been in the ‘Keys’ and notice it is nothing like Millie claimed, we have not set off back as soon as we have seen the US 1 ‘0 mile’ marker, but two days later!

Anyway we set off on our journey back up north, back to Key Largo, where this time we are stopping on the Gulf Coast, in an RV Resort called ‘Points of View’ a few miles south of the John PenneKamp Coral Reef State Park, which if you remember is where we stayed on the way down.

It was a shaky trip over the bridges and the causeways with the RV swaying a bit on the exposed sections from the cross wind that was blowing in from the east, the Atlantic.

An interesting trip however and some more spectacular scenery and within a couple of hours we were approaching a road junction at Atlantic Road in Key Largo, where we were going to try and execute our very first ‘U’ turn in a road with the RV and the tow-car on.

We had to do this because the RV Resort was on the opposite side of the road to the direction we were traveling.

We needn’t have worried (although we did!), because we managed it easily – phew and pulled into the Points of View RV Resort.

Anyway the site we had picked on the RV Resort, number 29, our lucky number, was right on the ocean front, facing out over the Gulf of Mexico, with the Everglades National Park visible across the bay we were in.

It was about half full, which surprised us, as we had had a problem booking a site around Key Largo because there was supposedly no room anywhere!

Once again the sunsets were spectacular, although this time we didn’t have to move an inch to see them as they were right there in front of us!

Just chilled for a couple of days though the weather, although in the 90’s, was a bit hit and miss with the sun disappearing behind cloud for much of the day and the wind remained strong, although now it was behind us rather than in our face directly off the ocean.

Off again in the morning on the second longest leg of the journey!
