This Week on the Island 10/23/2022

 

‘This Week on the Island’ is written by Doug Bennett and is an update to friends about happenings in Key West last week. Everything is true except for those parts that are lies.

 The Weather: We finally got some cooler weather. The temp dropped into the low 70’s with little humidity.

This week ends with Goombay and kicks off Fantasy Fest. The whole 10-day celebration is the busiest time of the year on the island.  Goombay is a celebration of the connection between the Bahamas and Key West. It takes place on Petronia Street in Bahama Village.

Sunday will be the Zombie Bike Ride. It will start near the airport and come down South Roosevelt (A1A) to the Truman Waterfront.

Then there is the Locals Parade on the 28^th. Starts near the graveyard and heads down to Duval Street.

The pet – Owners Parade on the 26^th is at the Truman Waterfront.

And the Fantasy Fest Parade on Saturday Night.

We leave you with ‘Easy like Sunday morning’.
