Cocoa Beach, Florida 09-21-09

Every year, we spend a week at our time share in Cocoa Beach.  We usually meet our friends, Jim and Angie, to spend some time together.


We are used to seeing sunsets like this while we are there.
This is a cruise ship going out of Port Canaveral as seen from our balcony.
While we were there, a rocket was launched from Cape Canaveral that had some military satellites on board and security was tight.
This was the rocket on the launch pad as seen from our unit.
Here, the rocket has just left the launch pad.
The vapor trail that it leaves is pretty awesome.
One of the main reasons we have a time share here is to go surfing!
We bring our boards with us and get some "quality time" with the Atlantic Ocean.
Time to get wet and catch some waves.
Waiting for the perfect wave.......as usual.
This one looked pretty good.
Caught it!  My form could probably use some improvement....
Sometimes you just have to get a break from the sun.
Lynda Lou is still learning how to surf, but she is catching on quickly as she paddles to catch this wave.
Looks like she got it.
WIPE OUT!!!!
Can you tell how much fun this is?
It's pool time and we really enjoy going down the water slide.
Here we are on our way up.
Whoo Hoo!  Who says people our age can't still have fun?
There is a neighborhood near our time share that has a group of peacocks that roam wild.
You come out of your house and what do you see on your front lawn?
Peacocks..what else?
Playing cards in the condo with Jim....it looks like we're playing another game of "Ken wins".
Angie teaching Lynda how to make jewelry.
What good is a vacation if you can't take a nap while reading a good book?
Every vacation should end with a fabulous sunset.
