10 things I learned on my trip to the Keys


1. Don't run on a uneven dock--you will regret this.

2. Fishing by the dock is a frustrating and fruitless effort as dock fish have a PhD in human avoidance. 

3. The reel of a fishing pole can suddenly fall off and hit you on the head while the boat is tackling rough waters...yes this happened to me.

4. Do not pack jeans...they occupy too much space and you will not use them.

5. Hawaiian Tropic sun block sucks...Copperton is totally the way to go! 

6. Pandora on your phone is a gift while traveling...especially if it means serenading My Heart Will Go On to your best friend with the ocean as scenery. 

7. Beach life makes for creative drink preparation...including the invention of new drinks like the Trouser Dropper (pineapple juice, Sprite, and coconut rum). 

8. When sea turtles are out in the wild, they apparently look like muppets...this was really weird. 

9. Fish like to wear lobster heads as masks...while they eat the lobster brains of course.

10. Sunsets on a boat in the Keys is an unforgettable sight.
