These are just a few of the
many neat shops that can be found on or around Duval street in downtown
Key West. Most of the ones listed below happen to be ones that Dave
visited. They are by no means the only ones worth seeing.
One neat thing
about these shops that you can't find in most small US cities is that
many of them are open late into the night. Most are open until at least
10pm.
