Key West is well known for its beautiful Victorian homes with wrap-around porches draped in gingerbread. "Eyebrow" houses cast a certain look and shotgun homes are often "arresting." Have you ever wondered what's inside? Of course, you have! Just like everyone else who visits town! And now it's not only possible to peek inside but get a glimpse of some tropical island Christmas decorations at the same time! It's an invitation that's impossible to refuse...
Key West, America's tiny little Caribbean island, has been associated with writers and literature since the 1920's. It was then that Ernest Hemingway first set foot on the island... and began a literary association with Key West that lasted for most of the rest of his life.
