Margaritaville and other Key West TraditionsWe are dry camping along with some 700 other RV'ers at the Navy Base here in Key West. Actually, there are two bases within the NAS Key West complex that make up the 700-plus campsites. The two locations are at Sigsby and Trumbo Point. Sigsby is located 3 to 4 miles from "Duval Street" in Key West while Trumbo Point Campground is located 6 to 8 blocks from "Duval Street". We are staying at Trumbo Point, an easy walk to Duval-Street. But remember this is Dry Camping. There is central dump station and fresh water. Generators can run from 6am to 10PM. Life is good. Commercial Campgrounds in Key West start at $100 a night and are located about 5-miles from Duval Street. Parking in Key West starts at $13 a day and goes up. The $13 parking site is about 6 blocks from Duval Street. The closer you get to Duval Street the more expensive the parking site.

Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Cafe on Duval Street in Old Town Key West, Florida
Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Cafe is one of those "bucket list" places that just have to be experienced when in Key West. Actually, it isn't anything to write home about. But it is one of those "must do" places. Yes, we did it once this trip with friends Macklyn & Les.

Parrot riding shotgun on this Key West, Florida bicycle
Parrots on folk's shoulders is a common sight in Key West. The individuals with parrots, iguanas, pythons etc., on their shoulders are just as "colorful" as the animals if you get my drift, and I think you do. VBG
Free Lance entertainers on Duval Street in Old Town, Key West
This lady is getting her picture taken with a rooster and a red parrot. Note the iguana laying on the top of that blue buggy. Inside the blue buggy is a pretty big python. This guy makes his living providing photo-ops to tourist. He works Duval Street on a daily basis. It is hard to see the red parrot sitting on top of that red rooster but he is there if you look close.
