Cocoa Beach Wine and Food Festival



The crowd spreading out in the field waiting for
America to take the stage. It was hit after hit
starting as the sun set in the west.



Some had really cool seats.



Crazy bikes from the twisted minds at Lowlife Bikes.



The crowd was scooping up eats from at least 25 restaurants.
See the full list here.



Got a little backed up at the wine tent at times.



Legendary chef, Matt from Matt's Casbah, cooking scallops soon to
be drizzled with an out-of-this-world citrus/??? sauce. Trust me, it
was good. Everyone seemed to have a blast and it was over by 8:30 PM.
Can't wait for next year.

What a week it's been



Looking north from south Cocoa Beach. Click photo for larger size.

More of the same is forecast. 10 day prediction below.



And now, check out the ocean temps. Notice the significantly
colder water just north of the Cape. This time of year it's not
unusual to see the surf temp in Cocoa Beach 10 degrees warmer
than in Daytona as this map from yesterday shows. Surf temp
approaching 70 degrees in Cocoa Beach while it is hovering below
60 degrees just around the corner of the Cape. The cobia will be
showing up any day now.
