Freakville sounds like a great place to people watch!
Happy BDay Allie! Love the pic of the phone queen!
I think OU has just about as many bars as OSU & Key West, ever do the Court Street Shuffle anyone? (Stop and have a drink at every bar on the street, in one day! It's only about 4 blocks long, but I think there's 15+ in that short area!)
Hi Kara
We have a week in the keys in November and we are planning one day in Key West, is there anything we shouldn't miss?
No! You can come visit ME!
New reader and here!! Girl, you are a hoot! Lovin this TR!!
Great start so far!

Mmmmm pie! On my list to do in August. As is the conch place. I guess I'll fit right in since I'm a freak baby! Lol. I can see Ally's eyes when that guy was talking to her. Lol
OH NO!!!
This sounds familiar! Last year on our second Cabo stop, I stayed on the ship with my kids, while my brother and husband explored the bars...Cabo Wabo and Senor Frogs.
Well, the ship started moving and I had no idea where they were!! I called Guest Services and asked if they could tell me if they were ON the ship. The wonderful CM told me YES!
ONE HOUR later my husband opens the cabin door (trips over the threshold) and falls into bed. Yeah, my brother made it to dinner but my husband didn't! And my husband can usually handle his tequila. To this day, he swears someone put something in his drink!!
Hope your hubby made it back!
(love your TRs btw!!!)
Cliffhanger, c'mon you cannot make us wait tonite, Dis rules say you have to come back this minute, with an answer.
Kermit's for Key Lime Pie is now on the list.
I hope Jeff made it? If he did I bet he still got "the look" for not letting you know he'd made it back in time.
Poor bored Ally! I know you made it up to her by buying her a D&B wallet or something right? The pie looks yummy. I have never eaten a Key Lime Pie that wasn't bitter. I finally gave up.
Now I have slipped over the edge and the rocks are falling all around me....my...hands...are....slipping.... COME BACK!!!!
We took the trolley tour (a green and orange trolley?) on Key West. It was o.k., just something we could do with the kids. It did pass by and point out Jimmy Buffet's studio, so I guess we were on a different ride from you.
I can't remember what or where we ate, though I must have fed them something. I know we had chocolate covered key lime pie on a stick at one point.
I think I might like to visit here again, sans kids. We didn't visit any of the bars because they were with us, but I did make them go to the wine store that was a few blocks from the Port. I picked up a Key Lime Wine and a pineapple flavored wine. It was a tiny place, but the people there were nice and offered me a wine tasting of a few things which made them even nicer!
Kermit's rocks!!! We stopped at every place we could think of so that Addie could try her pie. Kermit's was her fave over all. Loved that place.
Oh Kara - you are so right about the train. It was like our trip all over again. We ended up at one stop and had to wait almost 45 minutes for a vehicle that was not packed. We ended up walking a lot - which was good considering how much key lime pie we had had.
OK I am ready to read the next installment.

Everyone asks, "Where is the best key lime pie in Key West?"
Right here, my friends, right here.
Well, at least I think it was good. Jeff had one bite. I had one bite and another trailing nibble, while Ally snarfed it down.
But let me just say.... it was goooooooood!
Wait, it's almost like we were on the same cruise? We WERE on the same cruise!!!! Was Brian your trolley driver? Just look for the dozen or so empty Gatorade bottles in his lap.....
So which key lime pie place did you vote #1? We only had the nasty chocolate covered frozen on a stick and the delicious Kermit's!
That key lime pie REALLY looks good. DW keeps trying to talk me into us taking a cruise but then she asks about the life insurance. There's a pattern here that makes me wonder......
I need me some freak time, gotta get my freak on, baby! Walmart isn't doiing it for me anymore!
I can just imaging Ally rolling her eyes at that guy, kids her age are so judgemental about coolness!
Oh Kara. you are so helping to keep the trip alive. DD read over my shoulder and said - oh I remember those cool green toes. I loved that color.
Kermits = #1 we also had key lime gum, key lime icecream and bought a key lime candle. hmm DD loves the key lime. the chocolate covered by the ship was not totally terrible but....
impatiently waiting for more TR.
