Thursday, June 7, 2001

Yesterday, we tried to make plans to take a boat out to the Dry Tortugas. Both boats were sold out, which may have actually been quite fortuitous for me. More on that later...

We thought we would sleep in seeing as how we had nowhere to be, but the killer chickens took care of that plan. There are hundreds of wild chickens roaming the island & cock-a-doodle-dooing at 5:30 or 6am. We had both just heard last week what a problem they were, and now we literally heard firsthand. Sucked to be us just then.

We spent the whole ENTIRE day lying around by the pool until it was dinner time. Galahad drank a never-ending supply of margaritas from their Tiki bar, while I ordered another sandwich every time I got hungry. Mmmmmm. Fortunately for my sensitive cancer-prone skin, there was always plenty of shade and a nice cool breeze to keep us copacetic. We just read our books & relaxed until they closed the Tiki bar. Then, on to the shower and dinner again. Luckily for us, we managed to find another sushi restaurant again, Origami. We actually went to an Italian restaurant on the recommendation of one of our resort-neighbors. However, once we saw the sushi restaurant next door, well there was really no decision left to be made. The fish is so fresh & absolutely delicious.
