Our first day here.

We arrived at the hotel at 12:30am to an utterly ghosty hotel, a sleepy front desk clerk and a beautiful, balmy night.

I think we only slept 5 hous, we were too excited to sleep and were on the road at 8am. Off to Kennedy Space Center!

On the way there we saw our first wild gator. Sucker was biiiig!

I think the combo of lack of sleep and over tired excitement made us leave the e-tickets on the bed back at the hotel. Surprisingly we didnt have a meltdown fight in the parking lot because we had hope in the form of a PDF of the receipt I had put on my iPad. Yay technology! I was going to find great irony if the ticket kiosk could not accept an electronic version of our ticket purchase at the home of America’s greatest technical achievement. But they accepted it and we avoided having to drive back to the hotel, fuming.

I have to say that being there really overstimulated my nerd gland. I frikkin’ loved every minute of it!

And SharkBoy managed to fall asleep within 30 seconds of the start of Star Trek Live… A new record!

Here are some pics… The last is just curious, and has nothing to do with science.
