Living in Coastal Areas

It is beautiful to live nearby the waters because of the endless opportunity of watching an awesome view. This is a boat ramp along Indian River at US 1 in Port Saint John. US 1 is the fantastic scenic route for travelers and the amazing view such as this picture is so surreal! We moved here in Cocoa just two months ago and we love this place. This particular location is just 4 minutes' drive from our home. People come here to go fishing and enjoy boating.This place is a good location to watch the rocket lift off at Cape Canaveral Air Force Base which is across the Indian River. This boat ramp is also a nice area to watch the beautiful sunrise in fact, I posted some of the pictures in this blog. You will be amazed! Anyway, my husband and I were here on this particular day to watch the Atlas V Rocket lift off!

Beautiful Clouds

When I had my practice teaching during the last semester of my studies, I have a smart pupil in the class. I was teaching Science subject for a class of 5 year olds'. It was about rainy, sunny, windy, and stormy days. After the discussion, he raise his hand and asked about the kinds/types of clouds. Armed with the knowledge, I elaborate and extend the coverage of the lesson for that day. He was so attentive and he memorized the 10 types of clouds. Can you tell the type of clouds I have in this picture?

Quality and Elegant Mailbox

Since my husband was retired for almost 4 years now and I worked from home, we practically own our time. We have no strict routine such as waking up early or should be home at certain time in the evening. We go with the flow of time. Traveling either short distance or 10 hours away from home is just normal for us especially when we are bored. When we travel, I took pictures of anything interesting and that includes beautiful houses along the way, outrageous building design and amazing mailboxes.

Have you traveled to Saint Augustine FL? If you enjoy driving the scenic route, you will be seeing beautiful and different kinds of mailboxes along the residential area along the beach. They are in different sizes and mostly with animal theme. I have seen a dolphin and great white mailboxes. They are huge so; you can see them on the road. You will really have a second look of their custom made mailboxes which some designs are animals and creatures in the ocean.

Some houses have the formal and elegant mailbox designs which they got from a decorative home mailboxes store. If you are looking for a good looking residential mailbox, just visit the link and I am sure that you will find an elegant mailbox that suits your personality and style.

Birds at the Front Yard

We have a bird bath at the front yard minus the bird feeder because the squirrel is hanging out on the treetops and they ate the seeds intended for the birds. The birds love to bathe early in the morning and the squirrel is after them so; they would fly away once they saw the squirrel snooping around. It rained in Orlando and Cocoa yesterday. In fact, it rained from 11 AM until night time. We went to the boat ramp to see the Atlas V Rocket launch and when we went home, there were 8 big birds at the front yard eating and digging down the grass. I don't know what they are though. They are smaller than the ducks. They look like chickens *wink*. Anyway, it's okay with me if they come around once in a while. I like watching them having a party at the yard.

Communication Equipments

Communication plays vital to our daily routines in life. If we look around us, we are so dependent with technology and it is for the good purpose. It makes our life easier to manage especially in this generation where we rely on smart phones and high technology gadgets for us to connect with everything and fast.

Boat Ride From Atlantis to the Port of Nassau

When we arrived Nassau at the Island of Providence in Bahamas, my husband and I decided to go and see the Atlantis Resort in Paradise Island. We took the ride of the van paying $5/person and we went shopping in the Atlantis Resort. The prices are expensive so; we just bought some souvenirs which are made locally.I told my husband that on the way back to the Island of Providence where Nassau is, we will be taking a ferry ride. The fare is affordable, just $3/person. The view from the ferry ride was awesome! The water is so clear and clean! It takes few minutes ride all the way to the Port. Everyone will pass inside the Festival Place for checkpoint. Always bring your passport, ID and the card from the ship.I would recommend that you should try the ferry ride. There was a Bahamian who kept us entertained with stories about the buildings that we saw during the ride. It was really fun. We gave him a small amount of tip/donation. The bridge above connects the Island of Providence and the Paradise Island.In the picture (above) shows the happy faces of tourists. We listen attentively to the man who kept our ride a very interesting one. Do not forget, if you visit Nassau, take the ferry ride or you will miss a lifetime *wink*!

Cruising in NCL : Norwegian Sky

Our Cruising to Bahamas for the first time was not planned at all. We have a family who stayed with us for two weeks and both came from Spain. I was browsing my bank account at that time and they gave me a promotional offer for $250/person for a last minute cruise. We only have 2 days to prepare our documents and everything went smoothly.We traveled to Miami since our Port of Call was at the Miami Port. My husband hated this city because of the traffic ... oh, I like it alright. Our two visitors were having a grand time. We leave and park our car in the port parking lot for 4 days. It was a rainy cruising but, it was fun and certainly did not ruined the trip.Norwegian Sky is a huge ship with 934 crew and majority are Filipinos. The processing of papers were fast and they only look for my State ID, hubby's passport, and the other two's passport also. The party, activities, programs and food started right away as we boarded the ship. Of course, it was almost 2PM so; we are famished. We dine in the garden buffet and the food was truly great! It seemed like I was in PI again. I bet their cooks are Filipinos too. They served variety of food and all of us enjoyed the food a lot!After we ate, we went to the 12th deck to see the other ships departing the Miami Port ahead of us.It was fun because there were live bands in the pool area, food was served lavishly considering this ship has a freestyle dining. Eat what you can eat is the thing here.4 days is not enough! I would love to do it again and for longer period of time. Thanks to my bank for giving me such awesome deals!

Skywatch Friday : Tropical Storm Beryl

It was almost 5 AM and I was still awake. I was watching the local news following the weather report on Fox. A tornado warning was issued in some areas up north of Florida. The weather here now is alright compared last week. Rain was on and off. Thunder and lightning were not that bad but still, I don't like storms especially when we are on the road.It is not hurricane season yet, Storm Beryl has made it's landfall along Jacksonville Florida tagging a 70mph winds. We felt the intensity of the storm here in our area. The thunder is scary and we only have rain. The wind is not that bad. I hope Beryl will weaken soon. Jacksonville suffered flooding and some of them have no electricity. Some power lines were knocked down by trees.Today, we will be going to Orlando and I hope there will be no rain.I don't like to see a miserable sky like this. I hope this storm will go away and vanish into thin air.Have a safe week everyone. Go and check out more skywatch images at the skywatch site.
