We watched this last night. I turned to my wife and said that we need to go to the Keys. Next winter for 2 weeks we are going to the Keys. I saved this video and wrote the places down that you went to. Thanks for doing the work for us. Last week it was 60° here in Upstate NY. Today it's snowing and there's at least 14" of snow....ugh. I love the mountains but this guy needs some blue salt water. You two truly are the best!!! Peace and stay safe!!!

[@CodyandKellie]

Awesome! Good for y’all. Yeah everyone needs a little warm sunshine ☀️

[@janevalentine6391]

I LOVED this video! Loved the 🐓's and chickens everywhere! The butterflies, birds and flamingos were awesome.

[@user-fd7op5bl2z]

Been to several sanctuary like this---your SKILLS with the camera, thank you for another GREAT video!!! Chickens are so cool!! Five stars tonight ❤

[@CodyandKellie]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@fastluxstyle]

Loved this epi! Florida girl and love Key West - from spring breaks in college and beyond. If you go back and have more time, Key West has become a bit of a foodie scene in the past 10 years or so. Lots of restaurants in neighborhood home settings. Have fun! Im just up the coast in Palm Beach

[@teresap.5991]

We'd love to key West when we were there many years ago. I'm glad you guys got to hang out there and see everything you did❤

[@annettezachery4229]

Thanks for taking us all on a ride. Love the whole adventure. ❤

[@veeemit9719]

You guys, there were so many amazing creatures at the conservatory! That was a great field trip, thank you.😊

[@78twood]

Cody says “ Hey it’s just a hole in the wall. I LIKE it !😆 Yall are so funny. I was just telling my sister that I’ve always wanted to see a butterfly sanctuary! The blue ones were my favorite. Also the olive green bird when you first came in! Gorgeous! So cool how when the butterflies land, their wings fold up and blend in with the foliage and the “eye” looking thing mark to deter predators. God’s creation is AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL 🥰👏 And we got to see the Kellie food dance 😆 You know the food is good when we see that lol… love y’all 💜

[@JS-id7ks]

By far the most amazing vlog you have done for us. We have never been to Key West and loved watching you show us around. Thank you!

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@dmasters1253]

Really enjoyed your Key West series, especially since I'm from Pensacola, keep up the great work you guys do.

[@CodyandKellie]

Thanks! Will do!

[@adeladahdah4418]

Beautiful places! Thank you for showing me all the neat places you go!

Thank You For The Great Tour...The Butterfly Aquarium Was Amazing Thank You Both For Sharing...God Bless You Both❤❤

[@lrparrish227]

I have always wanted to take the time to visit there. My kink of place. Love it. Thanks for sharing!!

[@joemeyers3127]

Those roosters are crazy! Now I want to visit Key West. Safe travels.

[@MackMoore-q2n]

Key West takes multiple days I lived on Big Pine from the middle 60s till the late 70s when company came to visit we would jump the Conch Train and jump on and off walk a lot and then ride it was the best thing next to a bicycle. Don’t leave the keys until you eat some conch salid for me my mouth water’s just thinking about it. Good memories your bringing back for me and I know y’all are making even more for you. God bless y’all.

[@CodyandKellie]

Where can we get it? All we see on menus is conch fritters. We want to taste the meat.

[@FRZNTYM1]

[@platemanFYI]

What a fun trip! How different the Butterfly sanctuary in FL is compared to the one I watched in Mesa, AZ which appeared more lenient. Loved the colorful Birds too. Thanks for sharing.

[@southerngent716]

We are going to Key West in October on a cruise and we rented a golf cart for the day.

[@melindaroberts4921]

Well the butterfly observatory is def on our list next time we are in key west. Looks like you had a great day. Also loved the boat rental from your last video.

[@chuckbrewington6817]

Amazing creatures

[@truckcampinglifemag]

That looked like fun.

[@edwardcorino8327]

That is beautiful Kellie enjoy your stay there and get some key lime pie

[@perfectweather]

Great video, thanks 👍

[@djstravels4828]

It’s so funny that you mentioned that ghost hunters episode!! It’s the first thing I thought of when you looked up those stairs! 😂

[@jessicadeitzmontgomery9870]

I’m gonna have to go to key west now! Love watching ya’lls adventures!

[@RICO-BugkillerFPV]

Long way from Arkansas. Awesome video of the Keys. 🙏👍🍻🍀

[@jessicafuller9170]

I enjoy your travel videos Cody and Kellie! I have never been to Key West…not sure if I ever will, but maybe when I check the Everglades off my bucket list!

[@terencebaxter4821]

Thanks. Great video.

[@kimprocarione5473]

Cool! I would love to check out that habitat! There are so many amazing birds and butterflies! We have flamingos at our local zoo, but they're still very cool. I'm surprised that they didn't tell you that Flamingos aren't born that color? They turn that color from the shrimp, I believe, but it does come from their food source. I always wonder what my mother's reaction to how Key West is today compared to when she lived there in the 40s. I imagine it has changed dramatically! Change has occurred everywhere, but Key West is so touristy over the years!

[@jstar1000]

There is a butterfly museum like that in Branson MO. You guys should go there and make some videos, there are a ton of things to see and do there as well. Its beautiful country there.

[@lorismith2484]

We have 5 hens and love them!

[@marvinleelove2931]

Beautiful

[@juliebolduc802]

I wish we had visited the butterfly place! It’s on my list for next time for sure!! That ranger sure had eyes for Cody!! Little hottie! 😆 Safe travels!

[@rayleo529]

the crazy "root" trees are called Banyan Trees. Its actually an invasive species, native to India,

[@sheilacaine]

Awesome ❤❤

[@mischiefroadtripadventures]

All I want to know is...why did the rooster cross the road? 😂 Seriously, great video! The butterfly sanctuary was incredible!!❤

[@edwardcorino8327]

Ya’ll need to visit the hemenway house with all the cats

[@bradfordbuckley6485]

Should have gone to Kermits for Key lime pie.You were only a couple of blocks away.

[@mikeconnors6395]

Hi guys, just started watching your adventures recently, I live on 20 acres in North Florida, just south of Valdosta, Ga.(Cherry Lake,FL.) I have an extra RV hook up if you find yourselves passing through the area.

[@johnbirchfield3505]

The lighthouse is in St. Augustine.

[@josebegui]

What, no colada this time? LOL.

[@americanrvtraveler2446]

I've been to KW multiple times and prefer to use a bicycle to get around the island.

[@kennethmoore5629]

Kellie, you are so beautiful, Cody not so much 😂😂😂. But then when you got that Jesus look you don't need much more! Great video. Key West is one of my favorite places on the planet.😊

[@kearnsey64]

No Hemingway destinations? Sloppy Joes? Not sure if you were near there. Thanks folks!

[@donniemabry1470]

Do you miss tent camping sometime Cody and Kellie

[@CodyandKellie]

Yes we do

[@conniewaite1371]

I believe in Florida there is a huge retirement village that they all use golf carts in.stores and everything

[@juliebolduc802]

The Villages. It’s a city within a city! They have their own paths to travel on and take up so much parking at the stores and venue areas.

[@bertkelly7650]

You're doing it so I don't have to...Thanks!

[@oaxacachaka]

That looked sort of like a zombie fish.

[@RalphBleam-g3d]

How bout the roosters😮,great viedo,God bless❤

[@usa91787]

Personally, Blue Heaven in Key West has the best Key Lime pie. Kiki's Sandbar on Little Torch Key is second. They have a great Key Lime Pie Shot too.

[@pauldonathan5316]

I don't know, seems too crowded for me, I like quiet beaches with solitude, relaxation, and food. I'm not really into going to a bunch of businesses.. I'm sure I am wrong, but I digress!

[@CodyandKellie]

Totally understand. We can only handle a day of it

[@melissazwieg2988]

Your husband reminds me of Grizzly Adams

[@jstar1000]

There are 88 keys on a piano lol.

[@johnbernier2917]

HE is not JESUS but is friend is

[@strangeweenieclown]

What a gorgeous aviary! I shared this video with my sister who is a birdkeeper at a zoo and asked her to ID some of these birds for y'all! The dark green bird you show first is a guinea turaco. The little guys running around on the ground at about 5:10 that Cody asks about are button quail. The black and blue is an opal-rumped tanager. And the multicolored rainbow bird is a gouldian finch. So many beautiful birds!

[@eBookHoarder]

The chicken crossed the road! 😂

[@melissazwieg2988]

🦋🦋🦋 we love all of your videos! They’re always so much FUN!!!🙃

[@jamessowards3822]

I bet Kellie could cook up a couple of really good chicken dishes with the chickens just roaming around town.😊

[@tammycruz8189]

I absolutely love butterflies 🦋 ❤

[@BobSprague-b5c]

Kellie, to "contest" to that is disagreeing. Attest to is agreeing.

[@WalterHarris-i6w]

So historical down there, glad you got to do it.....

[@ScottChristerson]

Just watched your video that is awesome beautiful butterflies love the chickens tell Cody he has a little silver in his beard LOL I've been watching the older shows

[@suziejohnson3810]

Don’t forget Bahia Honda right next door! Best beach in the keys! Sand spur! Nice tomorrow ! I’m camping on the water! Room if you want to stay a night! I leave Monday!

[@suziejohnson3810]

I meant Sunday ! Storms still tomorrow!

[@andreabishop123]

Bahia Honda is the best!! Watch the sunset on the bridge ❤

[@jenniferfisher530]

He does have the Jesus "look" 🤣

[@TheZombiecowmeat]

Vheck out jungle gardens in Sarasota, you can actually feed the flamingos there

[@stephanie864]

The Ghost Hunters episode was in the St. Augustine light house.

[@ericmcdurmon8000]

I bet the light house is in the middle because it is a small island and all sides needed to see the light house. While on the main land there is no need to shine to the other side.

[@ChowdahHead]

88 steps and 88 keys on a piano.

[@GH-sn1hc]

Watched your video , and we already planned a cruise that included a Key West stop, your video made us make the treck to the Butterfly place. It was GREAT. Magical Place, thank you So Much

Omg!,,❤I just missed you guys. We live in Key-west in Winter… that’s my home.I miss you guys the last couple times when you both were here. 😢Should get ahold of me and you guys could stay. Husband and I and friends can take you all over to awesome places….❤❤❤❤Love Fort Zach, I can show you an awesome spot there ,private setting there. No one knows. Love it❤❤❤❤

[@wardarcade7452]

Fascinating look at Key West! BTW, it got its name due to the first Spanish explorers finding bones since the Native Americans had used the islet for a graveyard. 'cayo' [KYE-oh]- islet 'hueso' [WEH-so]-bone which got garbled to Key West (and the whole chain of islets became the Keys). Although by an amazing coincidence it IS the westernmost islet in the group with a reliable fresh water supply! Glad you got to see the flamingos, butterflies and other flying birds and bugs! What's interesting about flamingos is that they get their orange-pink color from all the shrimp and other seafood they eat. Otherwise, they'd have ivory white feathers! BTW, flamingo comes from the Spanish and Portuguese word 'flamengo' [flah-MEHN-go]- flame colored!

[@amydelpiere9315]

One of the best days ever. :) Catching up on all your FLA Keys videos - makes me miss all the sweet days spent on Green Turtle in the Bahamas. The key lime, the fresh fish, the dolphins, sharks, the chickens, golf carts, the ocean breeze, and beautiful clear water! Can't forget the friendly people. Wow Wow Wow :) Also, you are making me laugh. Cody making sound effects while driving the golf cart; Kellie driving over the speed bumps "I need a sports bra". On one trip we started talking with a British accent and yelling out "Helloow" to every other cart we passed on the road. We get happier just using those mini cars. I have to remind myself that you aren't on vacation exactly. Glad you are having such a good time in Florida.
