Hey @lxsxl.. I haven’t visited Fort Zachary Taylor, but your post totally reminded me of a similar fort I visited here in my country.. It was also right by the water, and the views from the walls were just breathtaking.. The mix of history and scenery made it unforgettable.. I can imagine how cool it must’ve been to explore the catacombs and see the cannons up close..
It sounds like you had great timing, avoiding the heat in the catacombs.. When I went to a place like that, I stayed too long in the sun and almost melted.. 😅 Next time, I’l grab some cold water beforehand, or maybe a cool hat.. Can’t wait to hear about downtown Key West.. sounds like you’re having a blast.. Safe travels..
