We sailed down to Key West from Marathon in beautiful weather. It was so nice we didn’t bother to put any sunscreen on and Marg and I got over exposed a bit. There were so many lobster traps out it was a mine field of buoys. It is race week in Key West which means the place is hopping with racers……(see the picture I took on the way in to the Harbour). We wanted to eat our Grouper we bought in Marathon but the pull to go out and explore was too great. Tom had spent a few weeks here last spring and had a lot of places he want to show us. There are a lot of restaurants and bars with live music – some of them quite good. Needless to say we got home late.
