Hello guys,

I'm signing in from one of my top 5 locations on this planet!

That's right, Key West!

Got here yesterday, and even though it's my third time I feel like a teenager in love.

Sipping some good Bourbon at the moment, just had a Key West sunset Ale (very good) and kicking it back the "conch" style.

My wife and I are traveling with my parents, who haven't been to Florida for 20 years. It's their second time in Key West and they love it as much as we do.

Here's a pic from last night, a good meal, a great view of Duval street, some tasty bourbon and a nice cigar. My father and me.

Cheers guys.

Have a wonderful time Andreas.

Art, Orlando seems outside of the schedule....

I would love to go to KSC.... But the two girls seem to enjoy the sun and shopping too much.

Unlikely we will make Orlando this time...

Perhaps a Ft Liqourdale gtg?

Luckily we have some extra time in Florida, but only 4 nights in KW. Should have booked this vacation a bit different. Well, I shouldn't complain, Miami and Ft Lauderdale aren't bad either.

That is a great moment for a Dad. To have a whiskey and a cigar with their adult son. Good on ya!

Cru Jones · 6 November 2012, 05:52 PM

That has to be quite the break from Finland in November! Hope you have other warm weather destinations planned, or you're going to be settling in for a loooong winter.

Winter in Finland (south) is a pain. Either it's rain, or like the last 3 winters 1+ meter of snow. The south of Finland isn't really built for 1 meter of snow, (well the airport is) so it's a bit tricky.

Luckily a early spring vacation is in the plans.

Grumpy Badger · 6 November 2012, 06:29 PM

Looks great Andreas! I've just been thinking I need a decent holiday and I'm wildly jealous... The last holiday we had was to FINLAND... in JANUARY!?!? I've never been quite right in the head!

Enjoy yourself, my friend!

That's a bit strange indeed.

But you got a scare on the ice though! That's gotta be worth something.

Amazing water. Great boat ride. It's amazing

I'm enjoying every second! Haven't seen the KW sunset yet, as it's been a bit cloudy in the evenings, but it's promising tonight, so gonna soon head down to town.

Beek · 7 November 2012, 05:48 AM

Enjoy!

Say hello to everyone and hope to see you all again soon!
