Knowles House at Key West, Florida, USA

Since I retired allmost a year ago, I’ve been “Grandpa Vagabond”. I love to travel, see and discover new cultures, rediscover where I’ve been before, compare behaviours, taste new food, watch the nature and also relaxe.

As my regular redears do know, I hope you are still out there after a long absence, I have travelled a lot. Both with Anna and a friend from Holland.

The latter is a great challenge, since my Dutch friend is a Female, and I’m a Male. Sometimes I wish I could have been a neutral “object” due to all negative thinking regarding such a travelling friendship.

So after about 8 weeks travelling with Anna last year, it was about time to go together again. We figured out our destination should be Key West and Miami Beach.

Well, this post is about a very special Bed and Breakfast in Key West: http://knowleshouse.com/Knowles House at 1004 Eaton Street.

I had search for the Right place for Anna and me to relaxe and enjoy Key West, for some Weeks, to stay for only 4 Nights. That in it self  is a challenge.

We  wanted privacy and as well have the opportunity to meet others. Besides we like “Clothe optional”  possibilities. Yaeh, we need Sunshine and Vitamine C all over Body during the dark Winter we have at 60 degrees North.

Well, we booked at Knowles House. And in return we got a quick response. I called bacj to confirm and I felt we were at the same wave…

When we arrived, we felt at Home at once. In a wonderful House from the early Key West settlements.  Here is our Pool friend…

Christiana wellcomed us with a glass of wine and gave us all and more than that, the information we needed. Well, here I am after a short dip in the Pool late evening. With more than a Glass of Wine, and even a Camera. Haha, we had freedom…

We both felt: We are at Home.
And met people from “all over”. Fantastic. No Photos…

We used the Cloth optianal Roof Top Sun Deck. Not revealed here for obvious reasons

Beautiful Flowers
And enjoyed the Breakfast (included) and Garden.

Here we are with Innkeeper Christina. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
We would like to return to this relaxing and wonderful Home.
