📅 July 2013

Last night there was a sign in our door saying we were moving rooms in the morning. To our total surprise they upgraded us to the owner suite which is amazing.

Should make a great end of the trip weekend. We are both hopefully done being sick now and off to go reef snorkling.

It was so rainy on wednesday but the hotel lent out large umbrellas to wander around with so we hit up the cemetery. it is definitely the most chaotic cemetery I have ever seen. The plots seem so random as is the architecture of the graves. I suppose a bunch of hurricanes probably played a role in that. The craziest remuddle was a historic looking mausoleum with a 1990-2000 looking door.

It was nice till a windstorm blew sand at us like a sandblaster.

With @terry sick in bed, I am forced to sip Pina Collada and eat coconut encrusted shrimp by the pool.

Now with the flu and sick of sunshine. I feel so bad for him. I hope I don't get sick too.

We took the Blu Q cruise out to a remote sandbar.

Swimming we found sea urchins, sand dollars and crabs. Not as much stuff as you see in reefs but still pretty awesome swimming.

Everyone on the cruise was nude so I didn't get any pics.

When we got back, we had to move across the island using our bikes to get to our new hotel. Carrying luggage on a bike is pretty complicated but I somehow managed to get a photo too.

Unfortunately, @terry has a cold now. Hope he gets better soon.

Hard to believe but @terry and I found some mexican we can agree on. The restaurant is called Amigos Tortilla Bar

Their tacos are made with homemade corn tortillas. I love corn tortillas so much. They also carry gluten free beers.

The Carna Asada quesadilla that @terry had was so covered in delicious cheese crispies on the outside.

I had a lobster taco, a fish taco and a shrimp taco. They were priced so good. a lobster taco was only $5.99 with the other two being only $3.99.

Its in the heart of the entertainment district on Duval st and you can sit and watch people going bar on the outside facing bars.

So far, we have eaten here 3 times despite the hundreds of amazing restaurants in Key West.

For straight guys, I am sure the superhot and friendly blond waitresses would add to the reasons to go as well.

We are going to a poolside masquerade ball tonight. We got a great deal on some handmade masks. I also found birkinstocks on clearance. They are just like a pair I had in 1995.

Its so sunny we needed light hats.



We also got bikes, island - here we come. The whole place is like the inside of the botanical gardens. I just wish I had packed cotton boxers instead of flannel ones.

We saw this at an art store here in Key West. The one giving birth has a little nonkey head crowning.
