The shuttle start

After a nice morning in Key West we drove up to Orlando and spend the night there. After a relaxing night we were ready for the shuttle start. The bus took as to the Kennedy Space Center first and we had the chance to visit some of the exhibitions there. Afterwards we drove to a viewing space about 6 miles away from the launch pad. The start was on time and very amazing. I didn't expect it to be that loud and bright. Afterwards we had a nice dinner and prepared our stays in the theme parks.
