We couldn't have asked for a more perfect "beach day"! We drove from Orlando to Cocoa Beach. The kids got to see the ocean for the first time! Although Grace didn't love the water, she ended up LOVING the sand. Ava and Ryan had fun jumping and diving in the waves. Ava accidently stepped on jelly fish that was already dead on the beach. We thought that was going to be a fun story to tell until.... Ava, Ryan and Kyle were wading out into the water when they spotted a LIVE jellyfish! Needless to say they all ran back to Grace and I and didn't go back into the water too much after that! For lunch we stopped at this tiny, hard to find deli and it ended up being one of the highlights of the trip. It was run by this ex ironworker who looked pretty tough, but was super nice. He ended up giving us a great deal on lunch, gave us free onion rings (just because he had extra) and gave the kids (and Kyle) free popsicles for desert. On the way home we stopped at a grocery store to pick up supplies for breakfast and snacks for the week. This was a smart move and ended up saving us a lot of money on our food budget!
