Another day of fun...

And Another day closer to flight.... :)

Outside the Space Center. :)
Since our experiment is just about done (except for what needs to be done right before we load it onto the plane), our day was almost completely free. We had to attend the early morning meeting, and our team had water duty today (making sure there was cold water for all the teams). After the morning meeting, we had a little downtime, so Phoebe, Jackie, Gabe, Josh, and Professor Riderer all ran a few errands including shopping at the Johnson Space Center for souvenirs. =) Then our team all went to lunch at this yummy place called Tokyo Bowl. :)
Touring the space center. :)
Lunch was amazing!!

After lunch, we got to listen to a couple of really neat education lectures. It is awesome to have these amazing people at NASA share their experience with us and tell us about what they do as well as share with us how we can stay involved with NASA. :) Before the meeting, one of the NASA employees told us that a few people got sick on the flight this morning, so we (at least some of us) are crossing our fingers hoping we won't have the same fate. :)

We had to head back to the hangar for a quick check-in with one of the engineers before we were free for the day. =) Then we decided to eat dinner at Fuddruckers before looking for a miniature golf place. After going to the wrong address, we finally made it to the place and realized we had driven a LONG way just to get to a mini golf course made of bricks and well... not much else. :) We had a lot of fun though golfing and enjoying the heat, humidity, and mosquitoes. :) All in all, it was another great and busy day :)
