Wedding Hangover? Not for us!

We were probably the only couple in the world to get up early the morning after their wedding to hang out with family and stroll around town. So, there we were. We started and ended at Kelly's Caribbean Grill (which can be found here), which doubles as a micro-brewery, which triples as the old HQ for Pan Am. The building itself has every essence of Lost (the TV show), with open air dining and tropical vegetation around, in, and on all the walls and the whole essence of a creepy, failed airline known for crashing planes. Though their famous Red ale was fermenting (much to the dismay of many a local beer drinker) and though apparently you can't buy alcohol in Key West before noon on Sunday (which, apparently, was the only way the bartender could distinguish us as non-locals because we are THAT awesome), they did have a delightful pale ale on tap that fit in well with the lush, humid surroundings. If only they had microbrews on Lost.


We also got to enjoy giant people, these freaky statues outside the old customs house, now the Key West Art and Historical Society...

... and shop for our new house in the Truman Annex, home of Harry Truman's Little White House, which was disturbingly ugly while surrounded by some of the most perfect, Caribbean Colonial architecture.
