KEY WEST REVELRY
This
humble scribe is a light weight when it comes to partying. If I lived on Key
West I would have to adapt or die. We have friends who have lived here for a
while and had to leave because it got to be too much revelry…and they are heavy
hitter, swing for the fences types.
Yesterday
was Thursday, and we only scratched the surface of the available antics on Key
West. The night started when we met friends for an incredible meal at Little
Pearl where we shared appetizers like Bangkok Octopus and Spicy Tuna Tartare
Burlee before moving on to our meals of Sauteed Local Snapper, Grilled
Swordfish and Grilled Wahoo. It’s difficult to get a table at Little Pearl, but
we had an inside connection.

Then it
was on to vibrator races at Mary Ellen’s. Yes, vibrators. The girls had bourbon
drinks while we had some local beers.
Then it
was on to Tropic Cinema the local bijou for a sing-a-long to Little Shop of
Horrors. Many in the crowd were dressed appropriately. There were several
Audrey’s, one wearing a tight-fitting leopard skin dress, an Audrey II with a
big head who asked if my name was Seymour, and one guy in leathers looking like
Steve Martin’s character in the movie. We got drinks before we entered the
theater. They served 90 Minute IPAs from Dogfish Head! We sang and laughed
along with the crowd.
Then it
was on to the Green Parrot. It was bustling. A band was playing. The bass
player looked like Borat and the crowd swayed to the music. We were drinking
Coronas infused with Patron tequila. Eventually we left and we weaved along the
fairly quiet streets passing places like Better Than Sex, a dessert restaurant
until we happened upon a bar with karaoke blaring from the open doors. It was
already past midnight and our friends offered us a ride back to the Coconut
Mallory Resort, so we didn’t stay. I was drunk anyway.
I told
you I was a light weight.
AND...THEY ARE OFF!
