Leaving soon for Kissimmee. It was supposed to be one week Key West and one week Orlando. I rebooked about two weeks ago in fear that no timeshare would be available if I waited.

The Galleon Resort in Key West where I was supposed to be staying came back online about a little over a week ago claiming not too much damage, but even if I could rebook I am concerned about what is open.

I think the October 20th date is ambitious unless more than %70 of the restaurants and bars have reopened.

So it's two weeks in Kissimmee/Orlando at two different resorts.

Unless I'm willing to travel 2 hours, this means no deep sea fishing.:sniff:

Huh - I thought I posted here. I am definitely keeping the reservation. If they hadn't opened by the 20th, I would have changed it.

Key West opened to tourists on October 1st, officially. Residents returned September 16th. 95% of power has been restored to Key West as of an article posted September 22nd. They are accepting cruise ships, too.

I went, I ate, drank all the rum, didn't get sunburnt. Now, I'm back in NC and it is dreary and rainy. I would like to go back now

Yea they would. And, it's legal to walk around with a cocktail "Just don't be an asshole" <- advice from a local bartender :D

Heck yea! I was even invited to a gay club by a gay guy who dances on the bar there. I am totally in :cool:

We spent just enough time in the Keys in August to wish we'd had more time to spend there.

I'll add my own rule to that one:

Never use manual focus while drunk.:drunk:

Some pictures from Fort Zachery Taylor. There was an actual, active Naval base next door. With BIG signs instructing to not take pictures......where google maps kept wanting me to walk through
