Hi everyone,

Today, Monday 18th, was our visit to the Kennedy Space Centre. We spent nearly 11 hours there, it was a fantastic place to go. We saw alligators and Southern Bald eagles on the way there, and millions of hungry mosquitos - the space centre is surrounded by a vast wildlife reserve. The Endeavor Space Shuttle was sitting on the launch pad waiting/preparing for launch (now 29th April) - so it was amazing to see that. We also saw the Atlantis shuttle in the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) being put together with the rocket boosters on the mobile launch pad. We saw the Saturn 5 rocket up close, and touched moon rock, and experienced the g-force of take off and leaving the atmosphere. There were amazing displays showing the history of the space program, an interactive star trek show, and the most fantastic 3D film showing all the images collected by the Hubble Telescope.
It was a truly inspiring day - and a wonderful memory to carry home!
