Cocoa Beach, Guest Place

We are in Cocoa Beach at the Guest Place.

We arrived Thursday, last, and it was cold
and very windy. Friday was the wedding and
it warmed up; the wind died down in the
afternoon; the wedding was picture perfect.
Keating and her mom had organized it
beautifully. It went off as planned. It
appeared everyone had a really good time
at the wedding and the reception/dinner
after.

Yesterday Keating and Lee and all Lee's
relatives (15 of them) went on a Disney
Cruise. Carl, Martha, Ariel and Robert
and I spent most of the day on the beach.
We walked about 5 miles; Martha picking
up shells, Ariel running and picking up
shells.

Ariel is in 7th heaven. She is on the beach
and in the water most waking hours! It's
her first ocean experience and is a good one.

We picked up a coconut when we were on
Sanibel Island and the handimen took off
the outer shell and drilled a hole in the
inner coconut for her. She drained out
the juice and took it back. The walloped
it with a sledge hammer and she now
has lots of pieces of coconut from which
to dig out the coconut.

Hernando, one of the owners gave us our
own cabin at no extra charge so we could
rest. Sometimes being grandparents does
have its advantages.

Tomorrow we go to Sea World and Tuesday
we head for Durham, NC and the Cowleys
fly back to Colorado.
