Spring in the Mid-West, should be in Key West!

The weather in the mid-west is miserable this time of year.  You get days near 70, like today.  Then you get snow, like tomorrow.  We all have a severe case of cabin fever, and my freezer has 6 holes i shot in it.  This is the time of year I had wish I had made some reservations for Key West...
I would start my day around 9am with a cup of cuban coffee and guava pastry at 5 Bros.  From there, head to Fort Zach beach for a few hours of sun.  Lunch is the perfect time to hit of Kelly's(owned by Kelly Mcgillis of Top Gun fame) and have some mango BBQ pulled pork sandwich with a draft beer to wash it down, then back to the beach or maybe jump on the Conch Train for some sight seeing.  If you go to Key West you have to hit up the Conch Train, it is how a newcomer learns all about Key West and what makes it so weird and wonderful.  If I wore a watch in Key West, I don't, when it would strike 3pm I would be at the Green Parrot for some afternoon beers.  I just love that place, has such an old school feel to it.  You get the warm breeze blowing in, usually a couple locals hanging at the bar, and just the chillest afternoon atmosphere you could ask for.  Appetizers would be eaten at the Half Shell Raw bar, "oysters and beer for dinner every day of the year" as Jimmy says.  I love raw oysters, and I really love them at the Half Shell.  Then around to Capt. Tony's for some pirate punch before sunset, that is when Captain Tony used to show up, so that is why I like that time there.  I just see that old man sitting in the corner watching the world turn.  Catch the sun set at the carnival at Mallory Sq and hope for a green flash.  Then off to Pepe's for a nice dinner, man that place is awesome.  Just a great vibe and great food.  I would finish the night at Schooner Warf, my dream bar.  This is the bar I think of when i think of a pirate bar, there is just something awesome about it.
