Lived in the Bay Area and got sent to Cocoa Beach, FL for a work trip.

Didn’t care to get out much., but figured I’d stroll to the beach to watch the sunset.

Got about halfway there before figuring out where I’d gone wrong.



One not only can watch the sun rise and set over the ocean in a single day in Florida, I've done so.


You get used to it, and honestly, it's nice in its own way. Having the sun at your back warming you on a coolish night while staring at the horizon is pretty peaceful.

Plus, I'd rather watch the sunset on the Indian River than to watch it over the Gulf, because of all the awful people who crowd the beaches of the other side of the state.


How did you get halfway there If you were walking in the wrong direction?
