Vacation Blogging – Day 1 – Cocoa Beach, FL

It’s been a week since we returned from our Florida vacation, and I’m finally feeling like things are getting back to normal. The kids are back at school, I’m back at work, and our lives are as hectic as normal with after school activities, basketball game, half-marathon training, etc.

My hope is to blog a bit about our trip each day. Our first day (1/15) was spent traveling and we had a bit of fun mixed in. We had an early flight from St. Louis to Orlando where we picked up a rental car and drove to Cocoa Beach. We met up with Amy’s parents at a restaurant for lunch, and then headed to our hotel. The weather was spotty on this day, but the kids had a great time at the beach and in the pool.
