Anniversary weekend
Hey FL Crew,
I'm Looking for a nice place to take the mrs. for our 20th anniversary in August. she was thinking Key West or something like that. I guess the keys are ok, but i am looking for some other options. She's new at being a passenger so i want to keep it at about 200 miles or less.
Looking forward to any suggestions.
thanks
Dave

Let me just say this once:
SAINT AUGUSTINE!!!!
They have awesome horse drawn carriage rides (although in this heat, it may be considered cruelty to animals).. and SO much historical stuff, the fort, awesome bars and restaraunts. We went about 6-7 years ago.. and that's way too long not to go back.

I'll second the thoughts for St. Augustine. I ride for 30 minutes and am in the heart of the old city. I never get tired of visiting there.
Marco & Sanibel islands are also very nice. I prefer Sanibel for the peace and quiet.
Cheap flights for the hop over to the Bahamas if you're thinking about not riding.

Here's the best of the best in St. Augustine: http://www.casamonica.com/
At least make reservations for a meal there some night if you go to St. Auggy.
This place is very worthy for an Anniversary get-away.
You have lots of other choices. IM me if you want things narrowed down a bit or you want feedback. I could also shoot you a couple of nice day ride routes, lunch and dinner spots. Any budget.
Since I'm the PoorBoy, I can give ya the real cheap ways to be up there. Heeeeeee heeee heee.

Thanks for the info Paul.
i think she might have narrowed it down a bit by distance.
naples, keys or captiva island. i think if she could handle 350 miles, cedar key looks like it would have been perfect. the condo's susan found for us on the last ride out there were great. unfortunately, 5-6 hours in this heat would probably kill her.
i should know soon where she decides.
thanks again for all the input guys.

Hey Dave, Susan and I stayed at the Cypress House last year and it was really nice and close to Mallory Square. It ain't cheap but its nice. Breakfast and happy hour were good too.
