I'll never forget that first experience at Key largo (we booked thru Mike at TropoTravel). Yikes! We were on the second floor and the hallway had that funky wavy action as we walked to our room with our bucket full of Coronas. I swear nothing in that place was level. Our room looked our over a rusted air-conditioner unit. Very romantic. But then, hey, what did we expect for $49 a night? It was THE king of all dives-and those were crazy times!

There's wind in our hair
And there's water in our shoes
It's been a lovely cruise.

You can still stay there on your next trip to Vegas if you like....you'll just have to share your room with a few homeless pholks.TraderRick wrote:I'll never forget that first experience at Key largo (we booked thru Mike at TropoTravel).

It is a lot now. They bulldozed it. Sad day that was!
I remember getting into my room and the roaches looked at me like "who are you?"
