We made it to Cocoa beach without a hitch. It was only 22
miles away on the intracoastal so that was not too much of a surprise. We found
out that Michele and Dave where at a marina here, so after we got everything
settled and engine checks done, we took off to meet them.
Dave took us to a 3 story tall hardware store. If you can't
find it here, it pretty much does not exist. Jim went to grab a can of Shellac
off the shelf and it spilled all over him. The can was sitting on the shelf
with no lid on it. Who does that? They got him some rags, but it took so long
that by the time he tried to wipe this stuff off him, it was already dry. There
are some downsides to a huge store! 
The girls did not stay too long, we took
off to check out some of the little
shops along the way. There are some really nice art stores there. We met up
with the boys about 30 min later and decided a pub stop was in order. We later
returned to Michele and Dave's boat for some docktails. 
Jim and Michele took out a map and tried to plan our shuttle day for tomorrow. So far it looks like it's still on, so we will be spending our day on the top deck watching a GPS positioning satellite get launched into the sky. So we better get our rest.
Good night.
