Key Largo, Montego, Baby Why Don't We Go...

Hey everyone. I know it has been forever since I have really updated but maybe I'll start from May and gradually work my way forward...eventually? LOL...maybe not but Jordan and I agree that the most fun we have had this year was going to Key Largo with some friends that are dear to us. We do miss Dan and Valerie (who are now up at Yale), and Raquel (new addition (wink) she is Dan's sister Raquel is drop dead funny). So in lieu of that we definitely were with some great friends as well as some good food. All this = such a Good Life. And this is where we found our selves at the end of May 2009 thanks to Dan and Val!

So Sun, Sand, Conversation, Beach here we come!!!! or came or went...LOL

Where we stayed? It went by the name of Bayside Inn Key Largo but we would like to call it the sweat box because we all arrived there sometime around midnight on a Friday but the air was broken and becuase the place was so dang small or well not a chain there wasn't anyone there to check us in. LOL...so the first time we all literally slept in the May humid heat of nice ol' Florida. However on day 2 it was quite different as they did switch us rooms where we basically froze our tooshes off, well maybe not all of us...LOL...maybe just me. But there were six of us staying in a 2 bed suite! Two persons to each bed and then two camped it out on the air mattress in the beds. So if you picture it you walk in the room beds to your left air mattress in between the two beds. So the only walk way was in front of each bed. It was quite fun and actually the air mattress was a bit more comfortable (smile) so dang funny. You can almost see our room in the picture, bottom.


So Saturday we spent on a boat...well mostly on the boat but we also ate some super great food and if Jordan had had it his way we would have eaten at MR. C'S ice cream parlor for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and all snacks in between...LOL.


Oh and on our way back to TpA we all stopped at Miami and as you can see we got sizoked! well just the girls. The guys decided to be gracious enough to just let us out and drive around until we were done dancing/singing/and laughing in the rain. Oh and back to talking about Key Largo...I can't forget to tell you about the yummy key lime pie Popsicle we all tried....sooooo good! but it might have gone to our heads because look at that big lobster we found...aren't they suppose to be a lot smaller than that? But when it is all said and done my two favorite pictures are the ones of raquel running out of the miami beach in the rain and the one of Valerie where she is in the middle of Dan and I at the pizza shop quenching her face (smile) these = priceless.



Dan and Jordan enjoyed their thinking moments too...quite moments are sometimes just the best.



so there is a lot more I am sure I forgot since it was over 4 months ago but hey if I get us all caught up maybe I can be better versed and not forgetful next time. (wink). luvmis!

Ohhhh my heck! What a great tribute to our amazingly awesome trip!!! That was SUCH a blast, and I am so happy we all went together. I loved the 'sweat box' comment! Soo true! I remember trying to argue w/ the manager when we were checking out and being like "The floor was soaking wet b.c it was soooo humid!" haha. One of my favorite moments was when we had to get off the boat b/c we were all getting sea sick, then we all took that medicine and got super ridiculously sleepy while trying to eat lunch at that restaurant. It wasn't funny at the time, but now it cracks me up :) You guys are welcome to come visit us up in CT for some New England adventures!!! New York and Boston are super close!
