Update #5 - Keyed up in Key West

Well last night we went to the Captain’s cocktail party where they had free drinks and hors d’oeuvres and we actually had no trouble getting non alcoholic fruit punch, they didn’t even look at us like we were crazy! Because it was formal night there were places to get your picture taken everywhere so we did that for a while before supper. Supper was incredible last night. We both started with west Indian roasted pumpkin soup (WOW) and I had stuffed mushroom caps. We also both had bowtie pasta with turkey, bell peppers and cream sauce and I had a lobster tail and shrimp to go with it that I didn’t even order, they just brought it!!! For dessert we had a pudding cake we’ve had before called bitter and blanc which was also awesome. The night finished with an 80s musical called far from over which was probably the best musical I have seen on any of the ships, really something to see!

This morning we woke up in sunny Key West, really beautiful to look out the window and see! We got up and had breakfast on the deck before going exploring for the morning. We toured a whole bunch of the little shops they have down town and took in some of the sights including Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville. So that was pretty cool. Around noon we got back on the ship to eat and lay in the sun which is pretty much what we did all afternoon as the ship left Key West and now heads south to the Bahamas!

Tonight we have a special reception for past guests that we are going to which is also usually a good time. We are having a blast so far!!

Sorry we couldn't pull out a win for you either last night or on Friday. The Black Sheep beat us on Friday 5-3 and The SC Blues beat us last night 4-2. Last night we only had two lines and things got a bit heated. Travis established himself as a true power forward with a beauty goal and I became "Bo-jangles" and "Darcy Tucker" wrapped together.. is that even possible? Anyway, glad you are having a great time. Key-p up the hard work!
