We got back on I-75, hit Tamiami Trail through the Everglades, turned on Krome Avenue on into Homestead, and down Overseas Highway (aka "the stretch) and were at Key Largo Kampground and Marina by the 1 o'clock check-in time. We are due at Robbie's Marina, about 20 miles away in Islamorada, at 4 for an informal wedding procession rehearsal.
Considering how many campers and full timers stay here, we were very lucky to get a spot that was relatively private.Roscoe seemed to enjoy the tropical setting.
The wedding venue is on a catamaran moored at Robbie's Marina, bayside.
Despite our best efforts, we were about a half hour late getting to the boat due to traffic backups. Here Bob chats with David. David's daughter, Chelsea is on the right.
David's other daughter, Emmy, and her friend, James, join in.
We know who this is, even if she wasn't wearing her cap!

After a briefing about who "walks the plank" and in which order, we gathered at the Islamorada Fish Company for the rehearsal dinner. Emmy, James, Chelsea and her friend, Stephen, were good enough to get there early to hold a table for the family.
And the entire bridal party..,Back row left to right: Stephen, James, Emmy, Jill (Amanda's sister-in-law), Andrew (Amanda's brother) and Cheryl and Mike (Amanda's mom and dad). Seated: Chelsea, Amanda, David, me and Bob.
We all had delicious seafood selections and plenty of libations with which to wash it all down. Nighttime quickly came, and we said so long until tomorrow.
