Shuttle Launch

Yesterday Doralya, Chris and I decided to drive down and get as close as possible to Cape Canaveral at the Kennedy Space Center to see the launch of space shuttle Discovery. This was our first trip to see a lift-off and things went smoothly. Although I hate crowds, it was worth it to be so close to the launch. Everything worked out perfectly from the drive down, finding a perfect spot in a little park across from the space center to the weather and lift-off. I guess if I wanted to nitpick I could complain about the traffic going home, but even I'm not that much of a grouse.

You are so lucky, Craig. I've always wanted to witness a Shuttle Launch in person since I was a child.

Me too. Was the blast off loud from where you were, Craig ?

Not so much loud as a rumbling vibration that came through you.
