Here's a shot of the waves crashing on Tuesday, the day Hurricane Ike hit Key West. This is near West Martello, where they have the Garden Club, next to White Street Pier. Not a serious hurricane for us but still exciting. Fox News was here, reporting on nothing as usual.
Monday before Hurricane Ike hit Key West, it's a kite boarding party on Smathers Beach. The wind was perfect for these guys, and White Street Pier provided the perfect photo-taking platform for their jumps. You can see that we actually have waves here in this picture. Usually we don't because the coral reef breaks them up before they hit shore.
