Still at Jetty Park Campground

Yesterday we went to Kennedy Space Center. We took the NASA up close tour and it was $59 each. Didn't think it was organized very good. Had lunch there. We both had cheeseburger and french fries and soft drink. The bill was $28. Today we rode bikes around the park and spent time on the beautiful beach. This sure is a great campground. It is $35 per night.

Jetty Park Campground

This morning we left Sebastian Inlet St. Pk. and drove to Jetty Park in Cape Canaveral. This park is the premier park in the U. S. for location. You can watch the space shuttles go up from this park. The park also borders the channel that many cruise ships use and also it is on the Atlantic ocean with a beach and fishing pier. We rode around in the afternoon of bikes and about 4:30 we were at the gift shop and I asked when the cruise ships go out. They said between 4:30 and 5:30 on Sunday afternoon. So we hurried back over to the channel to watch them all go out. Took a lot of pictures and videos. Tomorrow we plan to tour Kennedy Space center.

Still at Sebastian Inlet State Park

Yesterday we watched the waverunners playing off our beach. Today we spent a couple of hours on the beach. About the only thing exciting was the surfers. The waves were pretty high.
