Today we were going to visit Kennedy Space Center.
It was a little chilly, but still beautiful compared to Ohio weather.
We all met in the hotel lobby for their breakfast. They had some good stuff!
We got to the space center around 9:30 and decided to head straight for the Atlantis exhibit. This was totally jaw dropping. They had you watch a little movie before you went in. Then this screen went up and it was right there! Just amazing and such a shame they don't fly them anymore.
We walked around there a little bit, and discovered they had a model of the International Space Station, that was just like a little playground. The kids (and adults) had a blast crawling through the tubes. It was a little hard on the knees for the adults, but still super fun.
Next, we headed over to a little angry birds space exhibit. They had a mirror maze and some slingshots where you could shoot stuffed angry birds. The kids loved the slingshots.
We had a little lunch, then the Musilli crew, went back to the hotel for the kid's naps. We decided to stay and take the tour out to the launch pad. That was so amazing to see, too! The crawler itself was absolutely unbelieveable. How they ever dreamt that stuff up, is beyond me.
This evening, we all went to a place called Grillers for dinner. The food was great and we had a nice time! When we were leaving, poor Jim got followed by some drunk hillbilly to the car. The Musilli's had already started out to their car. Jim was just double checking stuff at the table, while Papa, Nana, Reagan and I were watching the band outside. Jim didn't see us, but when he came through the door, this guy was holding the door for someone else. Jim went around through the second door, when the drunk guy started mouthing off saying he wasn't holding the door for Jim. The guy actually followed him to the car and was still bitching. The Musilli's were still loading the car, so both Ron's got out and came over to our car. The guy eventually backed down and went away. How freaky! People are nuts!
Once it was over, we had a good laugh. I said, "geez, I get to the car and find my husband in a bar fight. WTF!?" LOL!
The photo of the day is all of us at the space center.
