10 weeks, part 4

On Friday we moved from the studio unit to a two-bedroom for Christmas week at Cape Canaveral Beach Resort.

Here are photos of the studio as we were moving out. There was only a mini-fridge and a microwave and a coffee table in the studio, so we didn't do much cooking. At least there were 2 TVs for the days it rained! It was adequate for our free week.




Then we moved to the Oceanfront building for our home week. It is a 2 bedroom-2 bath with a balcony that overlooks the port and the canal. In this unit we have a full kitchen and dining table, so we’ll be doing more cooking.












Since we are in a corner unit on the 5th floor, we have more view off the balcony to the left and there are windows in the living room, dining room, and second bedroom. That makes for a brighter home away from home.

On Sunday morning we watched the launch of the SpaceX GPS III satellite. There’s a video on my Facebook page. We also watch the cruise ships come in and out.




You can get pretty close to the cruise ships from the Jetty Park pier.

And we can also see them all lit up at night.



More flora and fauna... (I warned you.)















The highlight on Sunday was going to Pineda just past Patrick Air Force Base to see the manatees. There is a natural spring off an inlet, and they come in there from the Banana River.






LOVE the beach and I am drawn back as often as I can.





There are feral cat colonies near the resort that are protected and fed by a group of volunteers.


Tonight there was a beautiful red moon.
