If the police catch them before they get to the USA, they have to go back home. But if they are not caught, they can stay in the USA forever.
So all those islands together create a 240km long archipelago that is called Florida Keys. And the very last island is the one we visited – Key West.
There are three things I remember most from Key West. The very first thing that stood out and attracted my attention were all the buildings and houses. Wow! Those people really care about the architecture and beauty of the island!
The second thing, which is a very interesting fact, is that Key West, being the southernmost tip of Florida Keys, is just about 140km from Cuba.
The last thing I want to tell you about Key West is the story about“ Key lime pie”. My sister’ s friend asked her to find this pie and eat some because it was his favourite. So my sister Ola found a pie shop on google and asked us to locate it. We spent more than one hour looking for the place and when we eventually found it and tried the cake, it turned out to be disgusting. However, this is not even the worst part of this story.
Afterwards we found out that Key lime pie is the most popular cake in Florida and is possible to get it in every shop. We did not have to drive for one hour...
So my tip for you is: ALWAYS do some research before wasting your time:)
Cuba, as you may or may not know( I’ m not going to judge you if not) is a very poor island in the Atlantic Ocean. People there very often try to run away and get to Key West. Incidentally, the law states:
Before we left Key West, my dad took one more photo of me and Ola with the statue of giant ballroom dancers. It was really huge!
