Another of the educational parts of our trip was a visit to Kennedy
Space Center. I think we all had a really good time. We watched their 3D
tour of the International Space Station and saw lots of other fun
things. The kids got to try "astronaut ice cream" and it was simply a
beautiful day. Unfortunately we weren't watching the schedule on the map
closely enough and missed the bus tour that would have been really
cool. Both kids for a while decided they wanted to be astronauts.
Although Alicia's stipulation was that she only wanted to go to the
space station, she didn't want to travel out into space or even to the
moon. I think Alicia's on to something else but I'm not sure about Ryan.
One fun thing is that they had a model of the Orion that will be the
next space vehicle.
