Wayfarer Midwinters East Lake Eustis SC, Tavares, FL * Feb. 3-5 pre-Midwinters fun - 4 (Key West 2) photos by Marc Bennett and Uncle Al |
 |
| Things looked every bit as
good Wednesday morning by the ... ... |
 |
| ... light of the rising sun. ... |
 |
| To get back to Eustis by
Thursday around mid-day, we had to leave Key West by not much after
noon today. So we did our sailor's duty and headed down ... ... |
 |
| ... to the harbour. ... |
 |
| At least one sentry was on
duty. ... |
 |
| A busy spot! ... |
 |
| And the Turtle Kraal
was just the place for a good morning cup of coffee. ... |
 |
| The Crabby Crew who will
helm this weekend but refused to lend me his shirt joins those ... ... |
 |
| ... taking pictures. ... |
 |
| Ah! Indeed, it was ... ... |
 |
| ... a lovely ... ... |
 |
| ... sight on this winter's
morning. ... |
 |
| Key West even has a
"campus" of the J School. ... |
 |
| A bit to the east of the
marina, things are ... ... |
 |
| ... a tad less crowded. ... |
 |
| Suckers for a good name
that we are, we went in search of The Hogs' Breath Saloon which
turned out to be right near
... ... |
 |
| ... this interesting
building. ... |
 |
| At the Hog's Breath,
we enjoyed their surprisingly good house brand of beer in their lovely open-air bar where Marc
discovered a promo for Appleton Estates Rum to which his family is
somehow connected. ... |
 |
| Alas, the
license plates reminded us of a long day's drive that needed to be
done. After three enjoyable hours and a lovely waterside lunch while
traversing the Keys, we slogged our way past Miami and the rest of the
urban sprawl. It was well after dark by the time we bedded down in Fort
Myers, only a couple of hours from Eustis where we now hoped not to be
useless! |
