2017 Fantasy Fest Theme - October 20-October 29, 2017
Propeller plane from Tampa to Key West...maybe time is traveling backwards!
Santa arrives from the North Pole...skip the cookies and milk, how about baring your ornaments?
Smallest bar, big time margaritas
Ringside seat at The Grand Restaurant on Duval Street prime real estate to watch celebrants promenade
I nearly dropped my margarita when this face popped up from the greenery
posing for the cameras and cell phones, sort of like the Red Carpet at the Oscars
skip the Oscar de La Renta flowing gowns, a few strategically placed greens or some whites for Toga Night tomorrow at Sloppy Joe's will do just fine.
in all sorts of body paint and costumes
The sidewalk restaurants are viewing stands and everyone walking by knows the cameras will be chirping, heck, if no one laughs or takes your photo, you are probably disappointed!
Red Night at Fogarty's is coming up later tonight...Kris Kringles and Dingles.
so get ready...there goes Wonder Woman and Superman sans culottes
Master body painter Avi Ram and his equally adept cohort. Having the blues takes on an entirely different meaning here
Hey, I think I know where she got that lovely outfit!
My suitcase didn't arrive till Thursday afternoon so I chatted up a couple recently painted up. The body paint is waterproof, will last a couple of days. Heading for the Red Party...
The Red Party tonight... also Toga Night and a dozen other themed events going on. Pick your colors or pack for every theme.
Did I say there was a Red Party?
No costume? Who cares. Sit down, have a beer and watch the action. I skipped a chance to pet a boa constrictor.
"How bout a photo of you two and my wife?" the man says. Everyone obliges. A Time Travels theme at Irish Kevin's
Enterprising bunnies...take a photo, put some folding money in their cleverly concealed tip wallet.
Enough said...
The night would not be complete without at least one Elvis sighting. It would have been more fun if my suitcase didn't arrive until the next afternoon!
