Police presence at (possibly) lot 13??
Other than the fact that it was an absolutely stunning day with a very nice solid breeze to keep the temperature down and thr bugs at bay, and while walking out at lot 12, where I always go, i was surprised by two pair of turtle tracks in the sand having built two separate nests!! The guy on the 4 wheeler came by and marked them this morning, just to the left of the lot 12 boardwalk.
Now as I was leaving at 11:30, i passed one park ranger and a few minutes later i passed 3....THREE.......KSC police officers heading out so what i'm going to guess was lot 13. Park rangers and KSC police I spend a lot of their time going on calls to lot 13.
So that should give you a clear indication of the reputation of the crowds out at lot 13, so if that's your cup of tea, knock yourself out. If you want more of a laid back crowd, I would suggest going to lot 12. There are plenty of other replies to people's posts in here, stating that they are going out for the first time or this will be their first visit. Some of us have tried to offer a lot of valuable information to first timers.
Now let me throw in this disclaimer: i'm not insinuating that the ONLY police and park rangers go out to lot 13 is for any kind of public disturbance. They also go out there for you medical issues, but there is a higher percentage of them going out there for calls for complaints and disturbances.
