Nearly ready.

Hope BA can screw the undercarriage in and nail the wings back on before Tuesday.

OK, flights booked , hotels booked, hire car (Charger again) booked, parking booked and bags ready to be packed. Just the ISS space walk tomorrow to be successful and we should be set to go.

Here we go again......

We've taken the plunge today and booked flights to Florida, BA this time via Gatwick, and Linda and Mary have a room for us at the Casa Coquina so it's back to square one. Slight difference this time in that Anne is coming too, so the boys will have to behave!

NASA are planning a launch on Feb 7th now that the ECO sensor problem has been fixed, but not tested. They are still putting it back together this week, so it's fingers crossed for a launch or else it will be a road trip down to Key West and a few more Warbird Museums. Oh, and some shopping I guess.
