Cocoa Beach


We stopped in Cocoa Beach to visit with our friends DruAnne and Dave. We arrived in time to watch the Super Bowl. In spite of that inauspicious start to our visit, we had a terrific time! We had dinner at the local must go to spot, Coconuts. 


The highlight had to be our nature walk at the Viera Wetlands, a reclaimed marsh. We saw a huge variety of birds and lots of alligators. Some of my favorites were the great egrets, the blue herons, and the Sandhill cranes that I spotted as we were walking back to the car. Mike and I have decided that this was our nature trip to Florida. It has been spectacular!

Another alligator. Almost becoming humdrum. Not!
