Once again we had not booked any off shore excursions and once off the ship we saw others headed for the Conch Train. I made up my mind I was going to make the most of this port, I have been to Florida many times but never had made it to the Keys and I was going to enjoy this! hahaha......The weather however had no intention of allowing me this one satisfaction from a cruise where I had repeatedly made poor choices about how I was going to spend my time on shore. Half way through the Conch Train tour the skies broke loose and rained like I have never seen them rain before. We stood at the depot we were dropped at after the tour was finished and I watched in dismay as the streets filled with water running over the curbs to the sidewalks, I sadly returned to the ship. Later that evening it stopped raining and I coaxed my party to venture back onto shore so we could party the night away. We were not on shore one hour when again the rain began. We made it to Sloppy Joe's bar, where we found a table and sat and drank while we watched them stack sandbags up at the door to keep the rain outside. When we decided we had enough and wanted to go back to the ship we stepped outside, the water was up to my knees. I am just a hair under 5 . We finally flagged down a taxi not caring what price we paid for the fare and with our tails tucked between our legs went back to the ship.
