Relaxing vacation
April and I really enjoyed our vacation. Going to our destination took about 16.5 hours. We stayed at Apopka, which is a suburb north of Orlando.
We had loads of fun on our trip and it gave me the opportunity to get away from daily life for awhile. Even the drive was enjoyable. April and I did not kill each other while on the road.
We went to St. Augustine and checked out the historic town on Sunday. St. Petersburg was another area we visited in which we took a boat ride and saw dolphins and multi-million dollar homes. We also went to Downtown Disney and Universal. Our last day was spent on Cocoa Beach.
For me the highlight of the trip was going to Cape Canaveral and visiting the NASA Kennedy Space Center. I took lots of pictures and really enjoyed the Apollo/Saturn V Center. I am not old enough to remember the Apollo missions, but I really enjoyed learning about them through the HBO mini series From the Earth to the Moon.
We also stopped at the International Space Station Center where we saw the future of NASA. I did get some space ice cream while I was visiting as well as a miniature Saturn V rocket. The ice cream was not good.
This was the first time I have been on the main section of Florida. My first trip to Florida was Pensacola, which is on the panhandle. The palm trees were also nice to look at.
Now back to my normal life.
