KENNEDY SPACE CENTER


We spent the entire day at the Kennedy Space Center. I've done a lot of touristy stuff and by far this was the best money spent but, I think it is expensive for the average family. It cost us $65 each to get in and do one of the bus tours. The Space Program is funded by our taxes. Without the space program, there would be no visitor center. Supposedly, the Visitors Center is funded by the admissions fees. To help promote the space program, I would think they would make it cheaper enabling for families to visit. The entire tourist program is highly educational, thought provoking, inspiring and just plain awesome. It's not like Disneyland, which is fun but in no comparison as educational as the Space Center. Just my thoughts.




As you approach the entrance to the Space Center you can see various tops of rockets to the left and at the gates at simulated astronauts hanging over the canopies of the main gates. Quite an awe inspiring approach.
