Wasting Away Again in Margaritaville

Recommended Posts

Here are some shots of a recent flight to the Florida Keys courtesy of the current sale on Latin VFR scenery and my need to mentally get away from the cold weather here in the Eastern U.S. :D

 

Cleared to land on Runway 27 at Key West (KEYW) in our JetBlue Embraer 190. Look at that turquoise water! "Now that's what I'm talkin' about!" after the early snow and arctic cold this year

Is that Jimmy Buffet's boat?

Rolling out - can you feel the warm tropical air starting to waft into the cabin?

Holding short of the taxiway for a departing Eagle Flight. If those folks are heading North I bet they're hating life:(

Soon as I get my stuff from the overhead bin I'm heading for town - see you guys at Sloppy Joes :D (with a frozen concoction that helps me hang on)

Had a few cold ones at Sloppy Joe's several times Bill. :D There is a great place in Islamorada where they have the best conch chowder, can't remember the name. Lots of atmosphere there, with buckets sitting around to catch the rain. :D Super shots of one of my favorite places. :)

Definitely one of the "bucket list" bars of the world Adam:D Thanks for the good words and the conch chowder tip - will have to keep my eye out on my next r/w trip

Oh no! Allegiant stairs in the last pic ! I run the ramp at our local station doing contract work for the Allegiant flights into KGPI ... what a circus that airline is ! In fact just got back from an hour and a half delayed flight here, other than that great snaps Bill ! Mike ;)

Nice Bill. Like these shots with all this cold weather here too lately. That water looks prime for swimming! (looking around) Now, where did I put my speedos? :o.

Well Johnny "Wear um if ya got um":D:D If I wore a speedo to the beach everybody would run off screaming:o:o

Kind of surprised me too Mike but that's the GSE that GSX assigned to me when I called for ground services:D:D I've never flown them but have friends who fly to Florida fairly often and swear by Allegiant so I guess it just depends on your experience

 

Thanks for the good words guys
