Feb 20, 2015 It was a beach and biking day. The wind is not cutting us any slack. We only have a couple more days in the Keys and we want to get in some Kayaking and David wants to go charter fishing. We’ve got our fingers crossed for Kayaking tomorrow morning. Fishing may happen Monday morning. We have church at San Pablo Sunday morning. God may be asked to forgive us Sunday, if Mother Nature backs us into a corner and we must chose between Mass or going kayaking or fishing. We leave the Keys Tuesday morning.
First thing in the morning we are getting ready to head to the beach and E T is sitting like a statue in front of the R V. David and I are trying to figure out what has her mesmerized, It is this awesome bird walking up the road in front of our campsite.
We head out to Sombrero Beach, another pet friendly beach. Sombrero is pretty. It has a park, pavilions and boardwalk. There is a lot more sandy beach than Cocoa Beach. If you’re looking for a romantic spot to watch a sunset, Sombrero Beach is it.
E T is becoming quite the beach bum. She is making lots of friends, Canine & Human 🙂 We take a side trip to Cocoa Plum Beach on the way home. There is a lot more room for E T to run and lots more canine activity there. How spoiled is this? She is not fond of the cold water rinse at the park so when we get her home she gets a nice warm water shower from the outdoor faucet outside the RV.
Our afternoon is spent on the Grassy Key Trail, a portion of the Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail. If you are into biking long distances on a nice flat trail, this is it. David and I biked for miles. At one point on our return trip, headed back to Curry Hammock, I say to David “Do you remember biking this far?” All of a sudden we see a sign for the Curry Hammock Nature Trail. We have biked a mile past our turn off. We both laugh out loud. How can anyone get lost biking a straight trail? When your relaxed and your enjoying the ride and the scenery, it’s easy.
Before dinner, we are headed out to let E T run off some energy in a field across from the campsite and one of the campground hosts tells us that several sail borders are setting up on the beach. We head on over to the Curry Hammock Beach and watch. Even E T laid down on the grass and watched. It looks like so much fun. I’m sure I would have liked to have tried in my younger days. If the water were warmer I might still try it 🙂
