Key West, FL 1st Annual Food and Wine Fest

[Jan 28 – Jan 31, 2010, Key West, FL] Went to Key West to go to the First Annual Food and Wine Festival. It was pretty good. A tad disorganized but hey, it’s their first one. Next year ought to be bigger and better. If youi know the legend of Captain Tony, I met one of his daughters – she was working at the concierge desk at the Key West Marriott. That was cool 🙂 I also made friends with the Barefoot Winery rep. After the wine and food tasting event in the tent was over, they gave me a few bottles 🙂

Bermuda 2010

[Jan 15 – Jan 21, 2010, Bermuda] Was in Bermuda for an extended weekend, almost a week. Went across the island. This small island has more history than you would think was possible. Anyway, I didn’t get to see everything but here are a boatload of pictures…

Key Largo, FL 2010

[Jan 07 – Jan 10, 2010, Key Largo, FL] Checking out Florida… Went to the Marriott Key Largo this time for the weekend. Got an upgrade to a huge two bedroom suite thanks to my Marriott Platinum status 🙂 Took a few pictures of the suite and the ocean view from my window. Good thing I went down to the small private beach on Friday… My favorite picture is the one I took looking up at the palm trees from the hammock. On Saturday, the weather turned awful – see last three pictures in the set. But I already had fun on Friday so it was okay.
