Now I am committed for sure to paddle to Key Largo during this year's EC.
Unless I can catch a ride Thursday March 1st from Key Largo to Ft DeSoto (ahem...DaveOnCudjoe), I will do the following:
Park at Key Largo Chamber of Commerce during EC.
Catch a ride from Key Largo to Miami Intl Airport on Keys Shuttles for $60. http://www.keysshuttle.com/
Fly from Miami to Tampa for $68 - booked it this afternoon. Prices were as low as $74 last year, then they jumped to $140 on Delta with AA at $88. Today, AA and Delta were below $70.
Still working on ride from Tampa airport to Ft DeSoto Thursday, but I have a volunteer to pick me up.
