Cocoa Beach - Super Bowl!!

Cocoa Beach

First allow me to apologize for no posts for a week!
We were in places where our only internet access was through our phones! (Not conducive to more than just checking emails and FaceBook once in a while - certainly not to upload files, etc.)

We bid adieu to Orlando (a week ago as of this writing!) and drove to the Atlantic Coast to
meet and stay with our friends Paul and Helen Volk. They spend every February in Cocoa Beach and have, for the past two, been in this nice high rise condo.


It sits right on the beach and has a heated pool which is quite popular


Bob rode his bicycle up and down the streets but a number of folks used the hard packed sand.
Theresa and Helen walked the beach while Paul jousted with AT&T trying to get a handle on a new MyFi toy (which he eventually did, but through no help from AT&T!)


This was not an uncommon sight - the family that computes together, stays together?
Somehow doesn't sound quite right, does it!

Sunday morning after Mass, we drove to Patrick AFB for their wonderful Sunday brunch.
It is more than omlettes, eggs, waffles, Champagne, etc. - they have roast beef, sliced ham, ribs, etc - a full meal!

On Sunday evening, we gathered with some other snowbirds from Indiana for a Super Bowl Party. Helen consoles the lone Steelers fan. I was ambivalent until Green Bay scored with 2 minutes left and I learned if no one scored again, I'd win the pool!


We had a great time and felt (slightly) guilty winning the pool!


Monday - on to Ft Pierce!

  1. I felt the same way. I won the pool ... it was a cheap one so the grand prize was on $10. But, it was nice to win. I didn't feel guilty.
