The Keys to Enjoyment Day #4: “Heading Home”

by reissmd, posted in Florida Keys, Key Largo

First of all thank you for the comments to yesterday’s post. I really hate to think I am writing to no one so all the comments yesterday really warmed my heart. Making a comment is very easy. If you are a subscriber to the blog you should receive an email. If you simply reply to that email it gets posted as a comment.

Another great trip has ended.  We had a wonderful time exploring the Keys.  I’m sure we would come here often if we lived in the east or a nearby cold climate. Luckily we live in paradise so I don’t think we will plan to come here again in the near future.  

Although it was a fun trip there was one thing I need to warn you about.  Being a bit humid here (not overwhelming in March) makes it a haven for mosquitoes.  Unfortunately the critters seem to love me.  Next time I’ll remember to bring insect repellent.  

There were other interesting things about the trip:  

In Key West there were chickens and roosters all over the place.  No one gave us an answer why they were there. They were numerous and they were loud. 

One of many roosters.
Another hanging out by a food truck.
Here is one in a tree.

Back at the hotel if you don’t want to be disturbed you put this on your room door handle. 

Is this supposed to mean “Do not disturb, I’m in the process of hanging myself”?

Okay here is the trip quiz. 

Does anyone know the name of this fruit? It was very tasty,.

Speaking of tasty, I saw this in Key West. 

I spent the rest of our trip trying to convince Patrice that they were referring to me.

And lastly, I loved this sign on one of the many bars we saw in Key West. 

Thank you so much for all your comments. If you enjoy the blog feel free to share it with friends and family. You won’t have to wait long for my next post.

Saturday we leave for ………………

  1. If you don’t like those bugs, don’t go up to Alaska in the summer. Theirs have tail numbers and have to file flight plans. Welcome back!

  2. I love your quizzes… is that dragonfruit?? I always get a chuckle out of all the photos of the fun things you see on your trip. The wiener truck and your comment has got to be one of the funniest. I know where you’re headed on your next adventure, but I won’t tell.

  4. I have no comment on the weiner but the fruit is dragonfruit – very pretty to my eye but not really tasty to my mouth. And PS: we love dragon flies because they eat mosquito larvae

  5. As always, thanks for providing me with some good laughs as well as some “I can’t believe he said that” moments.

    Loved the chickens! Several live across the street from me, but they are enclosed – even though their crowing sounds travel widely.

  6. You are a true poet! Thx again for a wonderful travel blog. On the downside: looking at all the photos with delicious food brings my cholesterol levels up. But hey, I know a good doctor! Have fun and keep on blogging about new adventures!
