Holiday Snaps Nov 2022: We stayed in an Air BNB on an "RV park" between Mimms and Titusville, the bungalow we stayed at was a small (for America) one bedroom with all the amenities overlooking hole 3 of the parks golf course. Most residents were in their later years and evidently came to the park in Florida's winter months to escape the proper winter up North. All were very friendly and the place had air of the film "Cocoon" about it 😁, the grounds were kept impressively clean and the weather varied between 23 and 28 for the duration. One of the main reasons we went to Florida was to visit Merritt Island, a huge nature reserve created when NASA started launching stuff into space in the 60s, as you can imagine the area is vast and depending on size of the rocket can be closed on launch days just in case it doesn't reach its intended destination and returns to earth with a bang! The holiday was interrupted midweek with a passing hurricane (Nicole) which didn't seem to bother the wildlife one bit. Photos are mostly birds but the are a few reptiles and and Manatees.
