Hi everyone! Thanks for all of your well-wishes on the CANADA thread!

We are in Cape Canaveral and took the Kennedy Space Center tour which was great. We got to have a (buffet style) lunch with an astronaut, Jon McBride. He was so kind, went around to every table asking where we were from. He took questions from everyone as we enjoyed our lunch. The whole tour was fascinating, seeing all of the things that were actually in space and my, those rockets are MASSIVE! And at the end we watched an IMAX movie in 3D of the efforts made to keep the Hubble Station in good mechanical condition. I love seeing video of astronauts floating around and doing their job, yet they have such a sense of humor.

The weather is a little cloudy and chilly but we didn't get too wet, thank goodness!

We are seeing many familiar faces with the staff which is SO wonderful (one of the main reasons why we cruise!) - and there were many who just boarded in Fort Lauderdale. We'll break 'em in for sure. :D

Have already met several other guests, I really love doing that early on! Dave & Joan sought us out (at a bar, of course! ha!) - so great to meet them and hope to get to know them better as we cruise on.

Time to shower up and head to the Stars Lounge! Compass Rose tonight and Prime 7 tomorrow night!
