Day Two in Cocoa Beach

Tuesday's weather was a bit nicer than the past week or so.  With the exception of a very few sprinkles in the mid afternoon, it was the first in about 10 days that we didn't have rain!

We ate a small breakfast (just a bagel or egg sandwich).  It was a pretty overcast day - so we enjoyed sitting on the balcony, without being roasted in the sun. Mid afternoon we headed over to the Historic Cocoa Village.  Nice ride with scenic views of the Indian River along SR 520 to Cocoa.    Been to Cocoa Village several times, and always enjoy the return visit.

Lots and lots of unique little stores and places to eat........ Just around the corner from here is an Ice Cream Shop where we usually visit........but it was just a little bit too close to dinner time.

A few pictures of Rich and I............just blending in!

And visiting some interesting shops.  Also - the building in the middle is the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse......beautiful old building.

From the Village we headed over to Merritt Island for dinner at the Longhorn Steakhouse.  Really wish we had one of these at home; it is sooooo much better than The Outback Steakhouse.  We ordered the Texas Tonion ( like Outbacks Bloomin Onion), Caesar Salad ( with delicious bread).  Rich ordered the Prime Rib and Baked potato.  It was HUGE!!!  I ordered the 6 oz Fillet Mignon, with a sweet potato.  Everything was exceptionally good!

Still have not seen a decent sunrise........ but I did at least get a glimpse at the sun peeking through!  And today, so far has been sunny and warm.  A big change from the last several days........lots of people heading to the beach to work on that suntan!  The view from our room.
