    In the Florida community I lived in the bikers would say, “on your left” or “on your right “ when they were coming up behind someone. But your “excuse me” is sweet.

    I live in Georgia, around 2.5 hours from the state line so we are always in Florida (usually Orlando) - We were there last week for Spring Break and I asked my son if he'd be interested in camping down there... He said no quicker than I could finish the question - LOL! I will have to show him this video - it is a tad bit more inviting than your typical 'campground' - ha ha! So, thank you for sharing!
    Also, I think a folding step-stool would be great (for access to your bike) - very easy to store!

    I came across your channel a couple of months a go and I have enjoyed watching you ever since. Strangely enough I really love watching you cook, and I love it when you offer us the first bite haha. My husband and I live in our coach bus for 6 months of the year and travel to far north Queensland (to the great barrier reef) up the east coat of Australia. We love our lifestyle and feel extremely grateful that we can live this way. I am Australian and my husband is Canadian. We plan to do the same thing in the United States in the coming years. We would both love to be in Florida for an extended trip. We only like the warm weather hehe. Thanks for sharing your journey with us xxx

    We grew up near to the jetties in Cocoa Beach and later Merritt Island. The port there has REALLY changed since I was a girl! We used to clamber over those rocks, burn the bottoms of our feet, too. Lol! It’s fun to watch you explore the roads and beaches in Brevard County. So glad you are enjoying!

    When I’m biking on a path that pedestrians also use, I always announce myself before I pass them. For example, “on your right” or “passing on the right” if I’m passing on their right side, and vice versa. It’s good to follow this rule if you’re passing another bike rider as well. People may not hear you coming so it’s good to make your presence known. It makes it safer for everyone. And of course, pedestrians have the right of way. I really enjoy your beach adventures. They are relaxing and scenic. ❤️ Thank you.

    My daughter and her fiance were in the Cape Canaveral area this week on vacation. The wind was making them crazy. They went over to Cocoa Beach but the sand was blowing in their eyes so they left a day early and drove up to Hilton Head SC for the rest of the week. Wimps haha. Not like you and your brave tackling of the wind with a bicycle no less. You're amazing!

    The bike lock you have I recommend searching youtube for it and the reviews will show how secure it is. Yes, the thieves have portable grinders that rip thru the steel faster than an eye blink and off they go. When you are taking your bike down or putting it back on the rack, turn your Van so you are standing on the high ground and your Van is in the lowest spot then you will have the advantage for reaching.
    Beautiful 🌊🐟! The ocean is so majestic and calming. Psalm 24:1 The earth belongs to God! Everything in all the world is his! 2) He is the one who pushed the oceans back to let dry land appear. (LBP) Thanks for sharing your journey.
