2/2/2015 True Lie's Girls Weekend - Marathon Florida

For many years, Deb's friend Geri  hosted a  long winter girls weekend at her fabulous home in the Keys. The name of the weekend, "True Lies Club" comes from the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie of the same name which was filmed in Newport RI (where we met Geri) and in the Keys. We watch this film just about every year!  In addition to Geri and Debra, this years group consisted of Emma, Linda, Peggy and Diane.  

Much time was spent relaxing, eating, drinking, reading, napping, and of course talk... talk... talk... talking on her lanai (Hawaiian name for deck or porch) by the pool.  Every morning started with a 5 mile walk followed by a wonderful breakfast.  We went to the weekend flea market on Pine Key and had some of the best pizza ever at No Name Pub.  On Sunday we dressed up and drove 

Little Palm Brunch

to Little Torch Key to catch a boat to Little Palm Island.  This small private island has a wonderful restaurant open to the public but the rest of the island is a private resort with cottages costing a minimum of $1,300 a nite!  The fancy brunch ($95 per person) included the boat ride and all you can eat and drink.  MANY bottles of champagne were consumed.

While the girls were at Geri's, the boys (John, Bill and Tom) sailed off on Bill's yacht and anchored near Bahia Honda Park for a few days of guy stuff.  Use your imagination.....
