Bluestocking – I saw this morning that the transition wasn’t as straight-forward as you had hoped; I hope the rest goes more smoothly!

Sunny – I like that the guide was authored by a local of Key West; it seems more authentic that way. and thanks for the answer …

marie – I use them too. Great for planning, and handy to have with you, especially for restaurants, walking maps, etc.

Allison – I’ve bought travel guides just to learn about a place, without a trip planned.

J. Kaye – we’ve visited Key West a few times. It has definitely gotten more commercial, but it still has a “whatever” vibe to it (you know, they don’t really watch the clock there )

After the kids are gone, this is a place I’d like to stay for a few months.

i almost always use a guide when planning a trip and when i’m on the ground- it definitely helps me with ideas, guidance etc. wouldn’t leave home without it!

I always wonder about “guides” and how helpful they really are, so it’s nice to get a “local’s” review on one! Great review!!

Also, I wanted to let you know that I replied to your question on my blog!

Sounds good to me. Thanks for stopping by. I finished the majority of the design. The problem is uploading. There is a problem with my software that I’m going to try to get resolved today. That’s what I love about Apple. They have Mac Geniuses in the store that provide free assistance. Hopefully it won’t be major.
