May 27, 2019 Space Coast RV Park, Rockledge FL

We had a great day at Kennedy Space Center with Leah and Sandy.  Not our favorite people to pal around with but we had an OK time.  We  got up and out of the house at 8:15 much the the dogs dismay.  We met Sandy and Leah at the Police Hall of Fame.  Then 6 miles down the causeway at Merritt island to the visitor center.  We bought out ticket then headed over to the bus tour which took us out to the Vehicle Assembly Building or VAB.  There is a 200 foot flag one side.  The blue area is as big as a professional basketball court.  Largest single story building in the world.  Stars are 6 ft. Across.  The statue of Liberty will fit inside with 200 feet left over.   Yankee stadium will fit on top with room left over for parking.   The launch pad  is out there as well as the moveable launch pad and missile carrier.   Once we got out to the museum we saw a couple of movies and toured the building.  They had a missile and a spacecraft there.   We had lunch at the orbit cafe then we went to the IMAX theater and saw a great movie.  Finally we went to the Atlantis exhibit about the making of the shuttle craft.  We went our own way and headed home first taking a swing through the gift shops and stopping for ice cream at the milky way ice cream shop. There will be plenty to see if ever go back.  It was very hot outside and very humid.  We never made it to the river with the Rannals group.  We came back and collapsed.   Later I sewed for awhile the fi

xed us egg sandwiches.   Dishes then walked the dogs who had to stay behind for 8 hours by themselves . Finally TV and games.
