Cruise - Day 3: Key West

Day 3 of our cruise we were headed for a day in Key West, FL. I had been to Key West before but Derek had never been there. I was excited to make some new memories with him!
Key West had the latest arrive time of all our 3 ports. We were able to take the morning a bit slow which is great when you're on vacation!
 We ate most of our meals from this area. It was always quiet and had the best views! This is arriving in Key West.

 I was texting with mom this morning since we had cell service again! Our good morning picture for the boys!

Before we left for our cruise we bought one excursion from Carnival and it was in Key West. We picked a tour of Key West on beach cruisers. It was so much fun!  Our tour guide took us all over the island stopping at many famous Key West attractions.

After our bike ride around the island we stopped for some lunch at Caroline's Cafe on Duval St. The food was great! I had the fish sandwich and it was HUGE. I cut the fish in half and it was still too big - but it was so good and I was on vacation. Calories don't count of vacation right?! :)
After lunch we headed to the birthplace of Key Lime Pie. You have to when you're in Key West right?! Derek got the pie on a stick dipped in chocolate. We sat on the little bench outside the store for him to eat his pie and ended up sitting there for more than an hour. We just talked, people watched and relaxed. Perfection.



Before we headed back to the ship we souvenir shopped for the folks watching our living creatures ;)

That evening we had a pretty relaxed time on the ship. We grabbed dinner and watched a comedy show. Ready for the Bahamas tomorrow!
