Key Lime Turkey Day



Finally, the long awaited Key West Blog. Sorry it has taken so long to get these pictures posted. We have been very busy since we got home, and on top of all of the shopping, and wrapping, I am sick AGAIN! uugghh. So, since I am home today, I figured I could at least sit in front of the computer and post this blog. Hope you all are healthy!

Tom and Castor in Marathon, FL. We stopped here to have a Thanksgiving lunch on the way to Key West. geeeezz what a drive! We sat outside right on the water! Ask Tom if you should feed the fish at this place. (FYI : I am NOT a bird person!)



This is where we stayed. It was actually pretty nice, considering the 2 pictures on the internet were from 1982. We weren't sure what we were getting into!


On the first night the ladies went to a drag show. This was my first time at a drag show, and it was a blast! This is Melissa and "Cher". Melissa also got to get on stage with "Cher" for her birthday!

Happy Birthday Tom and Melissa! Here we are at Blue Heaven for birthday breakfast. This restaurant was wonderful. If you are ever in Key West, be sure to stop here!!

Tom's birthday breakfast : Lobster and filet mignon eggs benedict!
We had to stand in line for this picture!! We didn't have to wait anywhere (except Blue Heaven), so I was shocked that there was a line for this thing!
This was on the Rum and Reggae cruise. After snorkeling, they serve free beer and rum punch. Since the snorkeling was not fun, we got our money's worth of "free" drinks!
Some stranger thought it would be a good idea to give Jamez a giant sparkler. It was funny!

Tom riding a mechanical bull. I think he is wanting to make this his profession!

At the famous Elbo Room in Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Another classic Jazz Hands picture!! Ft. Lauderdale.

This was our last night in FL. We got some stone crab to munch on since we never really got to have the seafood feast Tom and I were hoping for. Stone crab is pretty yummy- but you eat it cold, which was a little weird. That's Archie trying to get a little taste of the crab. He is such a good boy!
