Space Shuttle and JFK Space Center

Well in addition to the many other activities we did this summer, we TRIED to catch the Space Shuttle Launch from the JFK Space Center, unsuccessfully....but it was lots of fun anyway!! Here's Joey and Da waiting for the takeoff...but it started to storm before takeoff : (

The waiting got a little boring : )

The museum inside was awesome though, and Joey got to meet a REAL Astronaut and see the Space Shuttle Discovery

Joey in front of the actual capsule that carried our astronauts on their first mission. Let me tell you folks it is SMALL!!! I would never be able to stand it!!
and Joey in a replica of the capsule, you can see he fits nicely, now imagine a tall man in there, cramped

Joey in front of Gus Grissom, John Glenn some very brave men!!

More of our summer to come : )
