Airport Beach Bar

Key West Airport - possibly the only airport in the world that has a beach area!!!

What a nice way to spend my last hour in  Key West Florida!


Back in Dublin

Our plane has just landed in Dublin.  It's 7am and grey grey.  

This is the weather we left in Key West, Florida


Some difference!

Dogs with jobs

This dog has an important job to do - he picks up his owners lunch in the Old Town Bakery and carries it back to the house!

This dog sits on his owners moped as he makes sandwich deliveries all over the island of Key West.


Flaming Buoy Fillet Co. - Again!!

We love this place!

It's got such a great atmosphere - so Key West.  We ate here on our first night in KW and it was the first restaurant that we chose to eat a second time on this trip.  
On this occasion we chose from the Sumner Sampler/tapas menu.

We chose a salad, 3 taster plates and a dessert and a nice bottle of merlot.  

Check out the delicious food that we ate tonight 





The lobster Mac & cheese is probably their signature meal - it is so good - the pasta is cooked al dente, the lobster is sweet and tasty and it is smothered in good strong cheese.  Worth visiting this restaurant for it!!

Then it was on to dessert!



If you visit be sure and say hello to owners Fred & Scott.  Tell 'em the Irish sent you!!

Mani-Pedi time

We went for a manicure & pedicure this morning in Maricel Salon (formerly on White Street).  Ciaran also got his eyebrows done.  

I got a French manicure on my fingernails and a funky pale blue varnish on my nails.  Very relaxing and chilled out morning!







915

We went to 915 last night for dinner.  We got such a nice table facing out on to Duval Street.

Ciaran started with Tuna & Crab dome (it was excellent) while I had the Devils on Horseback (love them!).



We both had fillet migon cooked rare for mains.  We got the pepper sauce on the side (really creamy) and ate the chips with the garlic aioli.






We then shared a gorgeous chocolate pudding between us. It was topped by white chocolate peanut brittle.

All in all a fantastic meal in possibly one of the nicest outdoor restaurants in Key West, Florida.

Braza Lena

On Tuesday evening I met my sister for food at the bar in Braza Lena.  We had a fun time - great caipiroscas and good food.  I ordered a burger and Amy ordered a meat platter.

My steak burger tasted really good!!!





We spoke to 2 guys who are majorly in to Bikram Yoga -  it's given me the impetus to go, I might do a class tomorrow!
