Key West July

[innit Geezer]

Koe and gang, just got back from a quick jaunt to Key West. The weather was beautiful and the ocean was bathtub warm. I'd like to make Key West a regular stop even though it is on the pricey side. The hotel we stayed at was too quiet and laid back but I found a place for next time.

At our hotel one night, I went in the hot-tub sans bathing suit around midnight, shortly thereafter, someone from the front desk came out to tell me I was on a web-cam. I told him I didn't mind but he said his boss "did." He wasn't amused but during Fantasy Fest I specifically asked the hotel about the hot-tub and was told no problem without suits at night. The only concern was excess noise.

We had some fantastic local dishes too, anyone up for Key West let us know!

An electric car we rented for a day was a tremendous help on getting acclimated and familiar with the island. A little costly but we found some good spots including the small public beach on South street.

Turn signals on the car were non self canceling so that added to the excitement but I felt like Ed Begley, Jr cruising in this thing.

(yes that's my thumb covering the lens)

This guy held a sign that read "Dirty Jokes $1." It should read, "Disgusting Sex Jokes $1," that would have been more accurate. My wife gave him a friendly soft punch when he started his routine.

I gave him $5 for his performance.

Sunset Key looked interesting.

Did you go to Capt. Tony's or any of the usual Fantasy Fest hang-outs? Howzabout the eats -- dare to try any seafood so close to BP's Ground Zero?

[innit Geezer]

Yes we went to Capt. Tony's. I didn't realize how much ladies underwear is fixed to the ceiling until I saw the place without all the revelers. Cold drafts were $3 and were very welcoming in the early afternoon heat.

We also enjoyed the place we had lunch together one afternoon at the end of Duval that was directly on the gulf.

A nice discovery was this dive shack inspired (but marketed well) fish restaurant. BO's Fish Wagon, a 4 or 5 star eatery in disguise. Normally, you couldn't drag me into a place looking like this but since I was in island mode thought I'd give it a try.

I really loved KW and hope to make it back there one day -- regardless of whether or not it's during Fantasy Fest week.

The town was full of energy thanks to the cruise ships and the weather was sunny and warm. Another local and off the beaten path restaurant is El Siboney, a casual Cuban place that was recommended to us by some Key West veteran vacationers we met by the pool.

I'll try and post more pictures, one of my favorites is one of my wife icing her foot after a transvestite stepped on it one night.

He probably did it because he was just jealous that Geri looked so much hotter than he did.

[innit Geezer]

Actually the transvestite was pretty hot himself and nearly a "10" except for a few point reductions such as

1) Smoking a Churchill sized cigar
2) A tattoo of battleship Iowa" on left forearm
3) A tattoo of a motorcycle (generic) on right forearm
4) A habit of adjusting his nuts

Better he adjust his nuts than yours.

And regarding that cigar -- are you sure this tranny wasn't really Monica Lewinski?

[Ardbeg... innit]

Monica Lewinski as a tranny would bring a whole (or is it "hole" in this case) new perspective to the 90's.

As I believe Austin Powers once so succinctly put it, "She's a man, BAY-BEE!"
