Another Day in Paradise

Key West is a fun place to be.  We generally dinghy in for lunch and to walk around.  We tried riding the bus but I would rather walk because the entire island is only 4 miles long!  We rented a golf/electric car one afternoon and went to the grocery store.  The $100 was pretty high for a brief excursion around town but we got the lay of the land.

Maggi Montana enjoys her dinghy rides

One Valentine's Day we had a great breakfast at Harpoon Harry's and enjoyed our walk to the Mel Fisher jewelry collection from the recovery of the Spanish Galleon, the Nuestra Senora de Atocha which sunk in 1622 and salvaged by Fisher off the Keys in 1985. 

This is a friendship bracelet to show hands together.  Given by her love for Valentines Day to signify that together or apart the hands fit together.  Made from some of the silver recovered and a replica of the gold bracelet found in the wreckage.

We had a couple of bouncy days out in the moorings  but generally it is peaceful and away from other people as we are tied to a mooring ball.

 Lunch at Harpoon Harry's is always good and we can sit outside with the Maggi.

Office of Pan American World Airways where they made their first international flight from Key West to Cuba.  Now just a cafe on the corner and Pan Am is just history.
Our son Kris and daughter in law Colleen, are due to arrive Monday for a 7 day adventure with us on the boat.
