Very steep McDonald's drive thru29 viewsIt is steeper than it looks. Pulling out, you can't see the driveway so it is very much like a roller coaster ride and fun with a sharp turn to the right at the bottom.

Water cistern27 viewsBefore water was piped in by the Navy, the Keys depended on rain water saved in cisterns for their water needs. During the 1800s a great fire swept through the area. Residents watched from boats as fire hopped from roof to roof destroying their homes. Since then, only metal roofs, which had survived the fire, were allowed on homes. This also helped with gathering rain water in gutters into cisterns.
