We arrive at Cocoa Beach

Check in at the Ocean Landings Resort in Cocoa Beach is 5:00 - so we didn't leave home until after 12:30 on Saturday.  We stopped in town first for gas, and then later for lunch at McDonalds , took our time, and checked in just before 4:00. Unpacked and enjoying the views from the balcony with a refreshing beverage before 5:00

Pulled out the camera after we exited from I-95 N towards Satellite Beach where we got our first glimpse of the water as we crossed the Inter-Coastal, Merritt Island, and the Banana River.


As we turned on to A1-A in Satellite Beach and headed into Cocoa Beach, we could see , even after all this time, that people are still cleaning up after Hurricane Matthew. Trees and brush lined the sides of the street.


The weather here is just beautiful, with temps in the low to mid 80's during the day and the humidity in the 60's and 70's.  Today was mostly cloudy, with winds probably 14 to 15 mpr, which made for some nice waves.  Walked down to the beach to get a picture of the front of the building and Rich on the balcony.


A few shots sitting out, before we headed out for dinner.

 
A Carnival and a Disney Cruise Ship leaving Port Carnival - passing by........


It was after 6:00 when we decided to head out for something to eat.  After a the driving - we decided to just walk across the street to Denny's.  Both of us like the food there......so it wasn't a difficult decision.  We'll probably be back here a few more times before the week is over.

Tonight Rich opted for breakfast and tried one of their new "specials". He said the Sticky Bun Pancakes, eggs, sausage and hash browns were excellent.  I had the fish and chips.


Beautiful evening.............
