Oh yes, Bahia Honda State Park is very nice and they have camping.  I automatically assumed all Keys campgrounds would be booked up through eternity.  I paddled around the whole island on my way back home.  I stayed at the Quality Inn in Key West and paddled around the Sugarloaf Keys and the Knockemdown (sp?) Keys in the daytime.  I spent the evenings riding my bicycle around Key West visiting all the tourist traps (Hog's Breath, Margaritaville, Sloppy Joe's, etc.) and buying sovenirs.

I wanted to visit Miami but didn't have time.  I love cuban food and cuban music.  Of course when I was passing thru all the cubans were camping in Elian Gonzales' front yard!  Well whenever I can afford another trip to paradise I will look you up!
