It Was An Excellent Week
Despite being in Florida during Tropical
Storm Fay and her record four landfalls in Florida, it didn't slow
us down unlike the storm itself which brought record rainfalls and
flooding due to its slow movement. Here is the projected path on Sunday
August 17, 2008 while we were still in Georgia. Thinking okay by
Wednesday night it will have cleared out and we should be good.
Here is the path the storm actually took.
We still had a great time this week, our motto became "just keep
swimming, just keep swimming", like in Finding Nemo, we just kept going,
the Tropical Storm wasn't going to slow us down. It was actually the guy
in Space Mountain on the first day who said it as we were trying to
navigate the queue. Everything from the parks, rides, food, resort and
animals made out of towels were excellent.
A Holiday Within A Holiday
We figured we would need a little holiday after our week at Disney
World, so we headed off to Cocoa Beach for a few days of sun and sand.
We are staying at the Hilton Cocoa Beach Oceanfront, it was hit hard by
Tropical Storm Fay last week as the storm centre was about 20 miles
southeast when it stalled. The first floor of the hotel had a lot of
water damage.
In the main lobby.
But we weren't there to sit in the hotel we came for the beach!

The waves were pretty good, good thing they got some practice in at
Typhoon Lagoon.
Our hotel and the crowds of people around us.
This guy was fishing from the beach and kept catching fish, not sure
what they were, it didn't take long for him to hook one.
A sand crab caught out of his hole.

The evening sky. The girls were back in the ocean after we had a swim in
the pool.
It was a great day chillaxing on the beach.
