Shuttle Ferry Flight

So the mission's over and the shuttle was supposed to land on Friday in KSC. Problem is, it has been raining there all week and will probably continue into the weekend. That's OK with me because if they can't land in Kennedy, they land in California which means 12 extra days at the beach!


Friday comes and goes and they wave off landing till saturday.


Wave off saturday too.


FINALLY...after almost a week of doing NOTHING (all EVAs were finished Monday and all our equipment was off) we finally get the OK to land in California. sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.


The 747 sucessfully landed in KSC and we decided to take a field trip to the landing facility to snap some pics of everything.






When we were snapping pictures, we were also getting eaten alive by dinner plate sized mosquitos. Need to remember the bug spray next time
