Fri we went to the No Name Pub on Big Pine Key. This pub is south keys land mark started in 1931 as a store with a brothel upstairs. It is now known for the dollar bills stapled to the walls and the greatest Pizza in the known universe. Our waitress told us that the in latest Gueniss Book of world records that there are over 100,000 one dollar bills on the walls. Customers sign their $1 bill and staple them to the wall, ceiling or any available place.
Big Pine Key is also where the endangered Key Deer are located. these deer are the size of a large dog. We saw two of them on our way to the pub.
Sat. we went to the Florida Sea Turtle Hospital at Marathon. This hospital is the only sea turtle hospital that is nationally certified. They rescue injured sea turtles and nurse them back to health so that they can be released back into the ocean. Unfortunately some can't be returned to the ocean because the nature of injuries would not allow them to survive if released back to the wild.
