Next trip report...360 days

Hello KeyWest Junkies,

This might be long so if you get bored..sorry!

Wife and I got to Key West Wednesday. We stayed at Marreros in the pool room (12). It was wonderful as usual. The ONLY drawback to this room is the TINY shower. Wife had a hard time shaving her legs... We are both small people too. A large person would have a hard time. But we love Marreros and have plans for our next year anniversary. Yes, there were a lot of people exercising their option by the pool.

Wednesday night we went to the Cheeseburger for early supper. The food was really good last time there but this time was just OK. The buns were soaked so I just got the meat and ate that. We finished supper and went walking around town and ended up at Cowboy Bills for the contest. It was crowded and pretty good. I would recommend it...even my wife enjoyed it. Note...B-12 helps hangovers if taken before drinking.

Thursday

Even w/ B-12 Note: Bloody Mary%26#39;s help hangovers a lot! I didn%26#39;t feel so hot so I got up and went to breakfast, then made a bloody mary. I started feeling better. By the 2nd bloody mary before 9:00 I was fine. Then 2 lemonade w/ lemon vodka by the pool...very refreshing. Off to Kino%26#39;s w/ wife...she bought I think 9 pair but some were for relatives. Then off to B.O.%26#39;s for lunch. It was good but appears to be smaller portions. We went to Mary o%26#39;Sheas for fused costume jewelry for wife. Of course we had to help Mary stay in business. Back to pool then to Rum Barrell The crabcakes were really good. Also got the Jamican chicken. We were sitting on the top outside in the corner and we heard this crash. I looked over and 2 moped crashed and I saw one guy rolling across the pavement. I do not know what caused the crash but it ruined his day. The ambulance, firetruck and police got there very fast. We went to Aqua for the show and it was a hoot...we loved it. One lady about 80, on oxygen was having the time of her life. I love seeing people having fun in KW. We ended the day at the Garden of Eden. It was pretty dead, just a few men and some gawkers.

Friday, again started with breakfast then Bloody Mary%26#39;s then lemonade drinks. We went to Schooner%26#39;s Wharf for lunch. We had the crabcakes and a salad. Excellent. We met some locals and talked w/ them. We fed the fish french fries...that was cool. Back to pool to cool off. We then went to El Siboney for supper. That was EXCELLENT! Then off to Captain Tony%26#39;s. We had the pleasure of meeting him. Wife had her picture made and you guessed it, his hand was on her b--b but he asked permission first, what a gentleman...lol Back to the Garden of Eden. A lot of people there now. A new friend we made had just gotten painted...nice!

Saturday, started w/ breakfast, bloody mary%26#39;s and lemonade. Then to Kino%26#39;s again and Captain Tony...that pirate punch is really good! Then to Schooners Wharf again, had to get a Dark and Stormy and lunch was good too. The fish taco and crabcakes were excellent. Back to mary O%26#39;Sheas to pick up some special order jewelry. For supper, we went to the HardRock Cafe simple because they had a good table to people watch. Saturday we just went in bars and people watched. We went to Willie T%26#39;s and Captain Tony%26#39;s and more.

Sunday, just horrible because the reality of going home hit me hard. Started ';detox'; Just 1 bloody mary by the pool. We rented bikes to ride around on. We tried to get a bloody mary at the Southernmost Motel bar I think but they did not serve alcohol until 12:00 I was depressed. Went to Schooner Wharf for lunch. Walked to Green Parrot. Then to Willie T%26#39;s for their Bloody Mary%26#39;s. I thought they were very good. Back to room to start packing up...yuk...rode bike to rental car place and got the rental car. Wife went to Faustas to get some dip for lunch for the ride home. This is a really unique store and fun to go in. Went to Carolines and had the lettuce wraps for supper. Really good! Since I was not drinking I got some key lime pie and that was excellent too. Back to room by 10:00 because we had to be on the road by 4:30 am to come home.

We planed our next anniversary trip on the way home. We hope to see ';all'; of ya%26#39;ll at Fantasy Fest!

Sorry this is so long...starting the countdown...360!

Awsome report. I am anxious to check out the Garden of Eden when I visit next Yr!!!! I want to get painted. That looks pretty cool to do!!!!!

Ha ha! I ended my report the same way! 360 +/- days until I return!!! It%26#39;s only been 2 and a half weeks since I am home, and it feels like a year. :(

Great Report! Sounds like you did a little of everything. No liquor on Sundays in Key West until noon...bars, stores, etc. If you plan ahead you can buy it before Sunday and make your own. :)

Limey

Or go outside of KW for a drink!
