Pelican R/V Campground

Back to our Key West trip, we picked a campground that was half way out on the Keys just below the town of Marathon. The other requirement was that it was reasonably priced which for the Keys is hard to find but the Pelican R/V campground fit the bill. It only charged $35 a day and then gave a 10% discount for a week stay.


























This was our first trip in our new mini camper - 14 ft long - and a little snug inside. If we can do this without fighting too much, we have a good relationship. The bed converts into the dining table but we never put it up - only ate breakfast in.


















Molly came along and was our watch cat as she checked things out that happened around the camper. Just to show how well we all got along, her litter box was under the bed we slept in.



































One thing Polly loved about the campground was the heated pool - she didn't go into it much but it was the fact that she could take in the sun poolside that she liked.







































We ate all our meals out. I googled the restaurants before we went and found one that was what you would expect in the Keys. It was named Porky's, I don't know if it was associated with the movie series of the same name. The atmosphere was great - I had two draft beers both times we went there and they cost less than Polly's Lemonade.

























They always had a meal on special. The first time it was "beer can" chicken. They put a beer can inside the chicken when the bake it and it evaporates as the chicken is cooked. The second time was barbecue prime rib - they smoke the outside of the prime rib to give it a little taste of barbecue. The prime rib filled my plate. Great place!
