Kennedy Space Center 2014 -- Does anybody want to see some photos of my trip?

I was just wondering if anyone wanted to see my photos from my recent trip to the KSC.

I didn't go on a flight day but I got some good looks at the Saturn V and Space shuttle.

I have some videos as well... pics don't really do it justice IMHO.

Great pics, thanks for sharing. KSC is definitely on my bucket list of places to visit along with the National Museum of the USAF in Ohio.

Same here. I'll possibly go to Michigan next january to visit some family members who live up there. Might manage to drag my family to Florida before coming back from the states.

I've been to KSC twice: Once in 1987 when I was in Orlando with the Navy, and once in 2006 when I was on vacation with my wife. I have pictures of me standing next to the Saturn V on display outside the VAB in 1987. We're hoping to take the kids to Disney World sometime in the next few years, and when we do a trip to KSC will be a mandatory event. (As well as a stop at Ron Jon's Surf Shop in Cocoa Beach. All my T-shirts are wearing out.)

I've been to KSC a couple of times. Once with the family doing the Florida circuit including Disney and a few other stops, and once when my father went for a meeting, and I spent half the day bumming around the visitor center. The second time, I got to see a satellite launch from the beach and the shuttle stack rolled out from the VAB.

Half my t-shirts growing up were from there. Still see quite a few of them, and stickers on cars, around here.

Looking at all these pictures makes me both sad and nostlogic.

Sad for the lack of progress made and knowing that the scientists and engineers who built them would be dissappointed in what actually came (And that they would lose their jobs after program cancellation too),and nostlogic for when NASA had guts, money, and a clear vision.

I actually have much more, but these were just a taste of what I have.

Please make an imgur album out of all of them and add it to the first post. This is really good reference for modders. I'd like to add it to the mod dev links compilation.

Sure I'll try to do that when I can!
