JIMMY’S GONE, BUT KEY WEST JUST KEEPS ON PARTYING

It’s Five O’clock Somewhere and even though it may only be 11 a.m. in Key West, the crowds at Margaritaville and Sloppy Joes have A Lot of Drink About. Florida’s furthest-south island, that attracted Hemingway and Harry Truman and whole generations of sons of sons of sailors is still partying heartily.

We’re docked here on Explora 1, the newest luxury ship in cruising, to spend the day among throngs of other tourists who have arrived by plane, car, motorcycle, and speedboat. The whole town depends on tourists and there was no hint that anyone was anything but enthusiastic that we’re joining the party. Come in, take a load off and check out the merch and kick back an over-priced Bama Breeze.
