The people you meet by SvetlanaL
When My boyfriend (Paul) and I went to Key West., we became very sensitive to the vibrations we got from the place. For two days we felt strange where we were, but felt like we should be enjoying ourselves, so we stayed. We ran into one guy on Duvall street who said, "There is no reality in Key West, man."Then we ventured into a small art gallery featuring amazing art of all different kinds. When speaking with the owner of the gallery, we understood why we felt so strange the entire time. He revealed to us that the entire island used to be a graveyard and the city is built on top of it. "Cayo Huesco", or "Bone Island" was its former name. Afterwards we felt dirty for staying so long and not listening to our instincts. This may seem like something that can ruin a roadtrip, and indeed I got a speeding ticket going 90 mph getting the hell out of Flroida, but we were both so happy to have our sensations confirmed that we were ready to leave. the experience was unforgetable.The best part of the visit has to be puppet show after the sunset celebration one night. If you can, try to find Marsha and Chester at Mallory square. Marsha plays the violin and puts on a hell of ashow as chester creates a puppet show to the music with childlike attentiveness. The stage and props are a collaboration of things they both found in dumpsters. They both ride bicycles with lots of trinkets and stickers glued to them and frequently visit the Denny's late at night. And are an entertaining couple of characters.
