I am new to ansible and trying to create EC2 and i have several other tasks 
to perform. here is the code,

- name: Create a Dataloading environment
  hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: False

  vars:
    key_name: sims-admin
    instance_type: t2.micro
    image: ami-e86f35ff
    region: us-east-1

  tasks:
    - name: Provision EC2 instances
      ec2:
        key_name: "{{ key_name }}"
        instance_type: "{{ instance_type }}"
        image: "{{ image }}"
        wait: true
        exact_count: 1
        region: "{{ region }}"
        count_tag:
          Name: CounttagANSIBLEDataloading
        instance_tags:
          Name: ANSIBLEDataloading
      register: ec2

    - name: Add new instance to host group
      add_host: hostname={{ item.public_ip }} groupname=amazon_ec2
      with_items: '{{ec2.instances}}'

    - name: Wait for the instances to boot by checking the ssh port
      wait_for: host={{item.public_dns_name}} port=22 delay=60 timeout=320 
state=started
      with_items: '{{ec2.instances}}'

- name: Configure instance
  hosts: amazon_ec2
  become: True
  gather_facts: True

  tasks:
    - name: Get the latest updates for instance
      apt:
        update_cache: yes
        upgrade: dist

It works until breathing room but fails in configure instance. I get the 
error saying

fatal: [54.145.185.81]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to 
connect to the host via ssh.", "unreachable": true}


At first i was struggling to even ssh to come up to work. I finally got it 
work somehow but now the configure instance is not working. i am using 
ansible 2 on mac. 

I am not sure why Configure instance fails? how am i supposed to login to 
ec2 in ansible? i have the key.pem in ~/.ssh/key.pem 

Please help me with explanation and maybe links to relevant links. 
Alsthough i have been to several links and since my basic understanding on 
ansible is low i dont quite get it.
