Back in Marathon

Today we wanted some new scenery so we headed further south to Marathon which is about 30 miles from Islamorada.

We quickly discovered the busy season has started in Marathon.  Last year we had no issues getting a mooring ball at the City Marina.  Not the case this year.  Several day wait.  So we started to call around and finally got a slip at the Banana Bay for a few nights.


 
The trip down included a mine field of crab pots, but not at many to dodge as last year.

We got set up in our slip pretty quickly.  We met a few of our neighboring boaters pretty quickly.  Looking forward to getting to chat with them more in the next few days.


Then we were off on our bikes to explore.  We went to the Keys Fisheries for my first pina colada of the trip..... super yummy.  What a beautiful view to enjoy a drink!



Then off to the Florida Keys Steak and Lobster House for the best key lime pie ever!

When Corp was in the parking lot he met Cheech from Cheech and Chong.  He was really bummed he didn't have his phone for a photo.  He shook his hand and said he was very nice.

I think tomorrow we will bike to Sombrero Beach for a beach day!

We feel like we are living like kings with electricity and fresh water... life is good!
