Melbourne and the Beach

Florida, Road Trip, States

We woke up to another glorious Florida winter day. Temperature perfect. Skies blue. We chose to just hang out in the campground all morning. Brought the arm chairs out into the shade of the trees and read our books. Then at midday we climbed into the car rolled down the windows, opened the sun roof, and headed out looking for adventure. We drove north to Titusville then east to Canaveral National Seashore. We could see the Cape Kennedy Vehicle Assembly Building in the distance and lots of birds in the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge but we headed to the beach. We spent a fabulous hour not only enjoying the surf, the sand, and especially the sunshine, but remembering when nearby New Smyrna Beach was our go-to beach way back when and thinking about a time before development when all of Florida’s beaches were pristine like this.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!

Savoy at Sea 2025

The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
