Dennis & I took a tour of the Kennedy Space Center, including a viewing of the NASA launch complex and 3D IMAX movie. Oh yes, we two love-nerds were very happy!
First, we jumped on a bus which took us over to the NASA complex. We had a lovely tour and took lots of pictures:
Second, we wandered around the insanely large Saturn V Rocket. More Pictures:

Third, we watched the IMAX 3D movie (narrated by Leonardo DiCaprio). Being whisked to the outer reaches of the known universe while listening to his voice was surreal. I was star-struck in more than one way! Obviously, I’m a big Leo Fan!
Finally, as the sun was sinking lower in the horizon, we stopped off at the Rocket Garden. Totally cool!
We gave Ruth & Brett a call and met them over at the Beach Club Resort on the Disney property.
Brett was telling us about this kickin seafood buffet, so we just had to try it out! I had crab legs for the first time and Brett was cool enough to show me how to eat em. As Dennis said, “they’re a lot of work, but the meat’s tasty”.
Later, we walked into the setting sun as the kids played in the sand. I promised Holly the next time we visit, I’d help her build a really big Sand Castle! I fully intend to keep this promise.
