All good advice

I especially liked Hemingway’s house with the tour. Sat down on a couch next to a coffee table with an odd piece on it, while the guide was still giving the tour. There was an odd item on the table I picked up to inspect, but couldn’t find any markings.

The guide found me and said to the group this was a perfect segway to the rest of the tour, as she told me to be careful with that item. She explained that while Hemingway was in Paris he had befriended a gentleman who gave that item to Hemingway as a parting gift.

The friend was Pablo Picasso. LOL

Key West Conch Fritters. Down on the corner of Wall St. It’s just a small stand, one person operation. Don’t walk past it.

Just go to Duval and walk/drink up and down the block. There is a clothing optional bar above a bar on Duval. Went up there and it was a bunch of guys holding their own...

If you do a true Duval crawl good luck getting back to the ship.

We got off the boat, took a bus off the base, then was dropped off, and got on a hop on hop off trolley.

Took it to the Hemingway house, got off and toured that.

Walked from there to Southernmost Point. Took pictures.

Got back on the trolley, it drove around to a few places and we ended up back on Duvall. Got off again by La Concha. Walked around, ate some key lime pie, had a couple of drinks, then walked back to the spot where a bus takes you back to the port.
