We got another break from the Florida thunderstorms today :) We walked to the Sandbar Sports Grill for an early dinner. Our leased Cocoa Beach condo is just a few steps away from the beach and is close to the pier, restaurants, stores, and some parks. Score!

Wailua Falls in Kauai
Our to-do list for this day: drive to Wailua Falls, stop by the Kilauea Lighthouse, and lounge at the hotel. But first, we had to start our day with a breakfast buffet at Joe's favorite spot - the Makana Terrace at St. Regis. Top 5 reasons why Joe loved having breakfast at the Makana Terrace: incredible view of Hanalei Bay and Makana Mountain, great food, guava juice, soothing sound of waves, and the perfect setting to enjoy the moment with wifey ;) Not necessarily in that order.
