Cast of Characters: Bonnie (me!) 43, obsessive trip planner
Shane (DH) 45, just rolls with my trip plans!
Shayna (DD) 18, obsessed with all things Disney. Going to university in the fall
Ben (DS) 15, who states that if he has to hug Mickey one more time, hes going to scream, but I think enjoys himself more than he cares to admit!
Jarrett (DS) 13, who doesnt really care where we go as long as he isnt in school!
Day 2:
Today was our Cocoa Beach day. Even though we were staying at POR for six nights, we were only doing 3 park days this trip.
Headed out in good time and enjoyed a beautiful drive to the coast. Saw one of the Disney cruise ships in the port which was fun to see!
Went to Cocoa Beach two years ago, and I can honestly say that we probably wont go back again. Weather was great, but the water wasnt at all inviting. None of us even went in and thats a first! Next time we would probably just hang around the pool at the resort. My DD was out to get a new bathing suit, but surprise, surprise, out of hundreds of suits, nothing was as nice as the one at DTD! She didnt even try one on! Looks like shes getting the $100 US bathing suit for her birthday!
Had some pizza at the beach and headed back to POR in good time.
Once everyone was showered and changed, we headed back to DTD. Really wanted to try Earl of Sandwich this trip and luckily, the line wasnt too bad. Actually, I found that during the entire trip, it seemed our timing was good for everything! Its that Disney magic again!
I have to say that eating at Earl of Sandwich was the surprise hit of the trip! It is the secret hidden gem at Disney. Affordable ($4.95) sandwiches that are tasty and filling! Loved it!
Rating overall: A++
DD got her bathing suit of course. DH almost passed out when he found out what it cost! He honestly thought a bathing suit would be about $25! Its a good thing he rolls with that kind of thing and just said Happy Birthday honey! and let it go gotta love him! J
