Florida Space Coast

Feb. 12- Feb 21st 2024

This will be a fairly short blog post, as there was nothing major that happened on this becoming routine trip to Florida and back. (I also spared myself and you all another trip I took a few days ago to Disney with the Tulip group...)

The 18 hour drive to Florida has become routine. We got to Melbourne in the afternoon and after relaxing at the apartment, we headed for dinner. I noted these big birds as we walked in.

We had dinner at Fiesta Azul Tequila house. This was incredibly yummy and I had this gigantic margarita!

Bed was welcomed that evening and we pretty much spent the next few days enjoying the apartment pool, the scheduled activities and time with our son and my mother in law. On Valentines Day, Mark and I had dinner at The Mansion. 

Our table overlooked the Indian-Atlantic River area and the views were beautiful. Happy Valentines Day.

As we were having dinner we had the special viewing of one of Musk's rockets taking off. Mark claimed he called Musk himself to make this happen to be romantic. LOL It was pretty cool to see. 

One evening, we were graced by entertainment at the apartment. This lovely violinist (I forget her name) has come several times to the apartment and she plays beautifully. 

We enjoyed her music as well as fruits dipped in chocolate. 

One afternoon we took a walk in "the jungle". We actually ended it early as Riley was struggling with the heat. I was actually worried about him. We must face the reality that he is getting older. 

It was a beautiful walk. 

One day we went to one of those BIN sales and an antique mall. There were some interesting things and I loved all the cool items at the antique mall. 

I got some yummies from the food truck that came to the apartment one night and enjoyed my book.

 It was a nice week full of fun and family. Homeward bound...
