I called the Chamber of Commerce to try to find out something about the Historic District, and got an answering service and she said we'd be able to see where the Historic District was, because it was "really old buildings"
I got a walking tour map from the museum. On the walking tour, I was not able to find the plaque about the 1900 Wooden Schoolhouse, nor was I able to find the Indian River Bank (1888) or the Brady Grocery Store (1886) until later in the week (They are still there but not exactly where I thought they would be on the map).
I also didn't see the Space Center viewing site - it was hot and I didn't want to get out of the car. We also saw the Prichard House (1891 but with the roof in bad shape), Wager House (1882), Robbins House (1901-photo 5), and Dr. Spell's house (1911-photo 4).

the canaveral national seashore is located in the kennedy space center. it offers beautiful playalinda beach, great views of launch pads and the VAB and wildlife trails. this unspoiled part of the east coast of florida is well worth a visit. note: the seashore is closed during shuttle launches and landings. check their website for more information.

the vehicle assembly building, (VAB) is one of the largest buildings in the world. this huge building covers 8 acres, is 525 feet tall and has 129,428,000 cubic feet under roof. to get an idea of it's mammoth size almost 4 empire state buildings could be placed in the VAB. not open to the public but you can get a close look at the VAB on the kennedy space center tour.

From May 2007:
We noticed a large bird in a nest high on a post on the right side of the road just as we drove into Titusville from the bridge from Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, so we pulled off the road into the little park there and took some photos of the birds.

We drove down to the National Police Museum which was in the AAA book. There are police cars, and motorcycles. There are interactive things for kids to do. There's a chapel and a big memorial with all the names of police officers that have lost their lives in the line of duty. Outside there's also a K-9 memorial (photo). You can go and do target practice at the Shooting Center for $18 by renting a gun and buying ammo.
