OK...so the wife will graduate with her MBA this upcoming spring. I was going to take her to Europe or South America or the Bahamas for a graduation present. However I instead bought her a BMW and now we are cutting back on the vacation plans.
So instead we are kicking around the idea of going to the Florida Keys in mid-to-late May.
I was reviewing Airnav and looking at prices and such and OH BOY!
The goods news is we also love road trips...so I was thinking of flying from the Atlanta area to Homestead GA Airport (X51), renting a car, and driving down the Keys, which would actually be awesome as we have not done that before. I also love sailboats so this would give us a great opportunity to stop along the way.
So...once we get down there, where do we stay? Marathon? Key West? We also *may* go ahead and get scuba certified while we are there.
Once we get ready to leave we will go back to Homestead and then do a nice flightseeing flight over the Keys before heading home, so we get the best of both worlds, from the air and the ground.
So what can people tell me about the Keys.
Thanks!
