Meeting Yahtzee in Florida this weekend was a spur of the moment decision – and one that I do not regret. I hope my husband agrees - though I am sure he would add that he needed a vacation just to support the effort to get me from NYC to Key West,
an itenerary which included a 6am departure on 2 hours of sleep
, leaving car in danger-zone for ticket or towing, boarding flight for second leg of trip as my name was being called on terminal loudspeaker, breaking my camera, breaking my iPhone and loosing a new pair of earrings.
Lucky for Yahtzee, he has traveled with Dasha before and had well planned a cozy little house for us on an island called Sunset Key just off of Key West.
Here were a few of our favorite activities
 |
| Romantic quiet moments watching the sun set |
 |
| Finding inspiration |
 |
| Spending hours in this hammock, mostly sleeping |
 |
| Watching this guy relax a little (and swing me in above stated hammock) |
 |
| Wearing this robe around the porch |
 |
| Dreaming a little…especially of our house on this lot |
 |
| Being together all day... |
 |
| …and night |
 |
| Boating |
 |
| And eating oysters, listening to music and drinking beers at Schooners Wharf |
We ended the weekend watching a spectacular moment in basketball history, the Dallas Mavericks win over Miami The Heat. It was worth it to see Dirk Nowitzki holding his trophy high, and to be among friends to high five and bitch around and celebrate, sometimes all in the same moment even.

Thanks Yahtzee, i hope you found some relaxing moments in-between your wife's hectic moments. Even if for days, we had our own private paradiso and i loved it and i loved being there with you.

Between the camera, iphone and earrings, I'm not sure which one you would be most upset about. They are all considered tragic losses for Dasha! Maybe a disconnect from technology was a plus for this little getaway! Glad 'Stephanie' and JT got some much needed r&r...what a sweet post, makes my day! xo Jo
ReplyDeletePS I'm all for the house being built in that location. Not only because its "totes awesome", but because if I have to hear Lydia ask me to go to the beach one more time, I'm just going to have tons of sand delivered to my backyard!
Love the post, Dasha. And I would expect nothing more than this type of story from one of your travel adventures. Glad you had a great time!
