Thursday 15th December
Such a pretty drive along the Overseas Highway, fifty miles south to Key West. On the left hand side of the road is the Atlantic ocean, and on the right, the Gulf of Mexico.
We have been here on a number of occasions, each time with you, my darling. So today we tried to explore a little more, rather than simply retracing our usual steps. We didn’t eat in our normal spot, (where you really enjoyed the chocolate dipped strawberries, drizzled with chantilly cream), but did have a cold drink on Sunset Pier, where we have sat together, many, many times.
The palm trees were wrapped with fairy lights, street lamps beribboned to look like candy canes, and various decorated Christmas trees were dotted about.
Missing you sweetheart
Thinking of you so much
Blowing kisses to heaven
Love you forever

Such a beautiful place with beautiful memories. I’m sure it was hard for you to do something different this year and feel as if you weren’t betraying those memories.
Oh, the Florida sun is something else! 💖

I hear it is. My boyfriends mom got married today. It’s so strange to see an outdoor wedding in December. Hope today was a good day for you all 💖

Key West seemed fairly quiet during the day, very pleasant indeed.
Always love the sunsets.
