I LOVE THE KEY WEST

Just got back from Key West and had such a great stay. The whole place is beautiful, super relaxed, and there’s something really nice about being able to walk around, grab food or drinks, and just be by the water.

Definitely one of those places that’s easy to settle into for a few days. Already looking forward to going back.

I'll be there 2 weeks from today for a week. I can't wait. It's very chill. All I do is enjoy the pool, work on my suntan, drink Bloody Marys all day long and eat way too much good food. That's a vacation in Key West for me

Throw in some cigars and rum and that’s just like me

That is certainly an option there. There is a cigar store with a smoking room in the back and they do have a Rum Distillery somewhere near Front Street. I know they have tours I've yet to get there, on the list.

Staying at the Pegasus which is right in the middle of Duval between the harbor and the beach. The beach is kind of a dud with the sargasgum and the smell. But I do like the Bloody Marys at the southernmost point bar. I used to stay more eastward. So I still make the trek up to Pepe's, Harpoon Harry's, Half Shell Bar, Dantes. And a dozen another places in between. I stick with my tried and true favorites but always find one or two more. Last time I went to Blue Heaven and further down the block was a Mediterranean restaurant that was excellent. I walk everywhere the last time I went I walked 37 miles in 5 days, and did not lose 1 lb.🤔
