so here we are in Key West at the southernmost point in the continental US
the waves the winds is crashing it up there kind of flooding the area that's
why most people are standing off to the side not going close
you gotta get your picture quick it's windy
how you doing Angela okay alright we're going to explore Key West today and
share a little bit with you too okay here we are at the southernmost Key West
cafe and Beach this is a little unusual to be this windy nobody's out here
because the waves are coming up pretty far
that water does not love turquoise
we will see turquoise water though we are starting on one end of Duval Street
the ocean side we're gonna head on down all the way and explore by the way
angela and i took an uber from our campground which was not a thousand
trails on gore won Boyd's about five or six miles like twenty bucks on an uber
so that's how we got here for the day mmm-hmm
we're gonna see a lot of chickens here in Key West soak us is a little like New
Orleans in Vegas you can drink down here open but you have to keep it in the bag
while you're drinking out of it and you can only drink in public on Duvall
Street in Key West so you can't go like a street over or something so a little
different rules but just drinking from a paper bag in public a couple bums here
get your Key West cigars here they can do the big wooden $5 coconuts it's cool
converted old movie theater marquee Walgreens she bad I didn't bring a
nomadic fanatic sticker could add it to the collection of holy cow look at all
those $1 bills
the whistle bar there is some really old architecture here in Key West still a
lot of live music in stone
they do have trains just like st. Augustine for tours but I kind of prefer
the old walking for Jesus
sandbar sports ball six before draft beers
yeah it says best pizza in town try it I know I'm wearing my ghillie du liebe
ugly shirt trying some local this is the key Billy key lime lager from Key West
and it's gummy would you get it yourself citrus again
but we're gonna snack here enjoy the air-conditioning for a little bit and
then we'll head on down finish mmm our pizza it's comfort food
did you have something pressing to say you've been being loud this whole time
hey be quiet all right by the way no alarm clock needed at Boyd's RV Resort
the roosters will wake you up before the Sun comes up yeah so no alarm clock
needed there so we got wet willies all right well we have made it to the end of
the one side of Duval Street in Key West let's go check out the water
like the other day today is not beautiful blue sky but there is blue in
the sky I don't know if you can see the turquoise teal tint of water it looks
very nice I love it go swim in reason I didn't make any snorkeling reservations
this trip is because the weather is gonna turn on the way up or go through
John Pennekamp so we'll just play it by ear when we leave Key West in a couple
days right now right now we're doing Key West
you may remember several years ago three or four years ago I was here in Key West
for my first time trying to boondock and didn't work out well I had to leave Key
West before the Mallory Square sunset stuff happens today we're gonna come
back here this is the end no you put the water side of of Mallory Square so we'll
come back but we get some other activities we want to do so we'll keep
walking around see what we can find that's my superpower they really
Bo's fish wagon check out this little truck full of stickers you know speaking
of stickers people were asking me about my stickers don't know if you've noticed
but in the video description my new nomadic fanatic full-color vinyl outdoor
UV stickers they also those are back available I don't have the old ones to
include like I did around Christmas or November time but if you want some
nomadic fanatic stickers help support the channel of those there's a link
PayPal in the video description $6 for two of them shipped internationally get
yours now while I have them and I will ship those out personally so we're gonna
leave Duval Street real are you drinking a Bud Light
no thanks Ernie and Kelley the ones who took me out to lunch in Fort Lauderdale
dinner told us about going up here to Dante's so I'm gonna go check out
Dante's alright we have arrived Dante's up here poolside bar some music
right on the ocean yeah if you can make this work for a little a little bit low
windy here this is my first poolside bar thing I don't like it we got our toes in
the water here Billy alright fun little stop we're gonna head
back to Mallory Square and see if we can get into a rum distillery here in Key
West oh yeah the party cat lots of rentals available I kind of like the
boardwalk trail a lot better than just walk on the roads though awesome view of
that water down there oh yeah okay these guys are doing it right there in a like
mobile tiki bar with a dog leading the way
you got the right idea I like that
see even the Gators in Key West drink yeah right I don't know the history
behind it but Keywest first legal rum distillery so we'll go check this out
get tickets connected via tour later but in the meantime there's some taste
testing this was the second bottling plant that coca-cola built in the United
States after Atlanta built it in 1903 my boss actually excavated some of those
bottles out from under the floor you wonder why Key West in 1903 word had
gotten back to coke that the celebratory drink in Cuba el Libre was being made
with rum and honey it soon became rum and coke what we are here guys is a true
craft distillery we are not trying to do a lot of wrong with doing some very
special wrong and it all boils down to several of the unique things that we do
in this room in it starts and ends with our main ingredient Demerara sugar we do
not use molasses in our Demerara is the true first pressing of the sugar cane
and a crystallize along this sugar gives us two major advantages right off the
bat a much different flavor set than a molasses-based rum but secondly and most
importantly by using this sugar we can come up I'll a still at a much lower
proof and hang on to many of rums flavors which are usually burnt off in
the distilling phase and now you all have a decision to make also because at
this point of the tour I can give anyone wearing their beautiful barrel decaf
a taste of high-proof unflavored wrong would anyone like it taste this is
sitting at 152
it's gone before the Sun sets and we head to mallory square there's one more
stop we both want to make as cat owners and that is Hemingway's cat museum the
polydactyl thumb kitties I have a big thumbs you have does that your thumbs

monument here to picking up barrels from the sea there's no title or anything but

to get around hey it's a mini-me it's got the Chevy yeah
Four Winds aside to Tioga so we got a pack out and today we got to leave I
want to show you show you the other end of this campground real quick though
so my sight back there is a hundred and sixty dollars a night I don't know how
much these are but they all have like waterfront and their own little private
docks out of the water so I think this is the nicer area to camp but I'm afraid
to ask how much it might cost anyway I got to get Angela back to the airport

catch back up and there will be some more updates later to come but yeah
