Endeavor Launch 11.14.2008

We went up to see our third space shuttle launch from the causeway at the Kennedy Space Center.  Endeavor was taking parts and supplies up to the International Space Station.  We spent the entire day waiting for the launch, and got to watch IMAX movies about the space station, experience a launch simulator, and learn about future missions.  The kids played on the playground a lot, too.  This was an early evening launch, right around 8PM.  The crowd out on the causeway was the most attentive, awed, and inspired compared to our past experiences.  Our kids were stoked to see the shuttle again.  It was a great evening.
