We live in a warm weather climate here on the Space Coast. This tends to allow good ice cream shops to thrive...and they usually do. In Indialantic a long time institution has been Moo's Soft Serve on A1A (between the 5th Ave and Eau Gallie).
This place will make you feel like you just hopped off a time machine and landed in 1970. Moo's serves good to great soft serve ice cream (real ice cream...nothing fake about this place)...low fat and sugar free versions...and some food items as well (they always have a special...4 Coney hot dogs for $6...not a misprint!) including some really good sliders....but the draw is the soft serve ice cream...it is the best on the beach! They have a drive-thru window so you can keep the a/c on in the car when it is 95 degrees...as well as a walk up window with outside tables.
Moo's is always packed...and you will almost always see parents explaining to children...Grandma and Grandpa took me here many years ago when I was about your age. On a hot summer day...or a beautiful winter evening...I can think of almost nothing better then going to Moo's with my boy...getting some ice cream...and walking across the street to the beach...what great memories this place will help you make!!!
The address for Moo's Soft Serve is 930 N. Hwy A1A, Indialantic, FL 32903

Carolyn Smith, Realtor – Looking for something to do this weekend that is fun and family-friendly? Don’t miss Friday Fest, happening this Friday, February 10th in Downtown Melbourne, FL!
Friday Fest is a family street party that is held on the second Friday of each month in the beautiful Main Street area of historic Downtown Melbourne. The event runs from 6 pm – 10 pm, and features live music, art, a fun “Kid’s Zone”, yummy food, various vendors, and lots more. This month’s live entertainment will be Spearfish, a trio that will play just about anything you can think of, with a focus on classic and alternative rock. If you enjoy bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Pearl Jam, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, then you have to check out Spearfish!
Friday Fest in Downtown Melbourne is the perfect night out for a family, a group of friends, or a great date night. New Haven Avenue is closed to traffic during Friday Fest, so you can browse the shops and enjoy the street vendors without having to worry about cars or traffic. The bars and restaurants in Downtown Melbourne are all open for business during the event, so you have plenty of choices for drinks, dinner, dessert, or whatever you desire! You can even grab a beer from the official Friday Fest beer wagon and enjoy your beverage as you walk down the street, check out the various vendors, and listen to the live music.
The weather should be absolutely perfect for this weekend’s Friday Fest. If you haven’t yet had a chance to check out this monthly event, I highly recommend it! Once Friday Fest ends at 10 pm, you can visit one of the many bars and restaurants that stay open after the event is finished. Hope you enjoy yourself!

Many people who fly into Central Florida come through the very busy...and very large Orlando International Airport. Orlando is a great place to visit and I love going over as often as I can...but I must admit...I am a hater of large airports in general...parking is a pain...taking trains to planes...long lines for security...all to get to the mountains, beach, city etc...
For the opposite reason you just have to love Melbourne International Airport. This is a small airport that allows you to fly through the big airports without dealing with many of the above mentioned issues. MIA has two major carriers...Delta and U.S. Airways...as well as some smaller regionals. They fly mostly connecting flight through Atlanta (Delta Hub) and Charlotte (U.S. Air Hub). These two large hubs can take you (1 stop) to almost anyplace in the World!
Parking is a dream...no trains or buses to get you to your terminal...short security lines...and I NEVER get there two hours before a flight. My only hope is they add more direct flights to major cities like New York or Boston.
If you are looking to take a trip to the Space Coast...take a look at flying into Melbourne International Airport...you will save an hour of driving from Orlando...and an hour picking up your rental car...well worth the stop at a hub!
