Maggie Posted November 9, 2005 Posted November 9, 2005 Banana Bay Resort is one of the nice old Florida style resorts, on the Water...Lots of shrubbery...free breakfast....I stayed there once, but partied there many times during PIP. Good choice. Maggie
Patrick Hand Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Cool..... cool... cool... I can get there.....where I sleep is kinda a hasstle.......
Matusalem Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 I'm makin' ye passage from Ft. Myers to Key West either Friday or Saturday after Thanksgiving.. Someone told me KeyWest Express catamaran ferry has a special deal $69 o/w from Ft Myers....anyone doing this?
William Brand Posted November 14, 2005 Author Posted November 14, 2005 So close, and yet so far away. The plane tickets are burning a hole in my pocket.
Patrick Hand Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 I look at my plaine tickets everyday....... of course they only get me to Miami..... but I hear the bus ride down (4 hours and 40 min. ) is colorfull........ Is the Key West airport realy outta commision, or did someone working for the bus line set me up ?
hurricane Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 The airport has been open for some time as far as I know. If not, the festival director would have told me so. I think you got sold a bill of goods... but it is a nice leisurely ride down and you can't even drive it much faster than that. It usually takes us 8 hours from Orlando - 4 to Miami and 4 from there to the Keys.

ROAMING ROMAN Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I will be heading down from the Boca Raton area on the 1st of Dec. No time set yet? Just heading down when I wake. If anyone needs a ride from the airport or the west palm area and around the rest of the area this day let me know! I would be glad to give them a lift! I'm going alone. I have the car and the time! Willing to help if you want it! Roaming Roman

Patrick Hand Posted November 21, 2005 Posted November 21, 2005 callenish gunner, check out Greyhound....... I have to take the bus from Miami down to Key West ... should be an interesting 4 1/2 hours...........
William Brand Posted November 21, 2005 Author Posted November 21, 2005 I see that many offers have been made to pick up fellow travellers in route to PIP. I would love to get a ride from someone that could pick us up at the airport in Key West on November 30th at 5:30 PM. If anyone could pick up three pirates and their gear, please let me know. Otherwise I'll plan on a cab for now.
Patrick Hand Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 Dang..... this is going to get interesting.......... I've got my plane tickets..... found the schedule for Greyhound...... and (should) have enough money to get by....... Aaaaaaargh... I LOVE doing things by the skin O' me teeth......

Been drying some buccaan (jerkey) and going ter be cooking some bread, so's I got somethin' ter eat (gotta save me money fer rum)......

William Brand Posted November 26, 2005 Author Posted November 26, 2005 Tick...Tick...Tick...Tick only days now.
Patrick Hand Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 One hour and fifteen minutes untill I leave fer the airport...... and Key West....
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I will be there... But in spirit only. To everyone who is going... please, raise yer tankard in a toast in recognition of my absence -- I will do the same to honor all of you from here. Gads, I wish I could be there this year... Two down but, as they say, "Three's a Charm." Next year, Compadres, next year. "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny...
