^ I don't mind seeing it once but next time I probably won't bother as I seen it way too many times now. As long as there's air con (which everywhere of course has and it's good) it's great for cooling off.

Day 18 - Kennedy Space Centre
Little did we know we would see a truly incredible sight later in the day, a sight that can not longer be seen.
But lets start with the sign!
The Space Shuttle Launch Experience! A really awesome ride!
A blurred view of the interior
Next up was
which was awesome!
Next up was lunch! I really like cups like the one in the photo!
I could be an astronaut!
A very famous walkway!
Of course you have to do the walk!
In the centre of complex is this globe, which small children and goon like to touch.
Then it was time to board the Astro... Bus! By that I mean just a bus
We had booked onto a tour to going inside the VAB, if you don't know what that is you can't miss it!
To put it into some sort of perspective each star is 6 feet across! It is the third largest building by volume in the world!
An emergency escape tank which could be used by astronauts in an emergency
It was time!
The incredible sight was coming up!
But first here is a ceiling
With many banners!
The crane (Yellow thing) was used to stand Space Shuttles.
There was also a new rocket
The crane was very strong
Here was something I never expected to see in its natural habitat
I was completely mesmerised by what was siting in front of me, a sight that I will ever seen again. I know Atlantis is now on display but seeing it in the VAB was just incredible, nothing can compare.
Another APC picture
A crawler used to carry the shuttle to the launch pad
VAB rear view
Launch control
Gas tank
Launch pad
Saw Discovery on one of the Launch Pads in 2006
Lovely setting
Route to the launch pads
Front of VAB
Houston Apollo 11 mission control
Saturn V
We went for a drink, I got a Mikly Way
except....
It was a Mars Bar! American learn your chocolate bars! :wink:
You sit on a throne of lies!
The famous eagles nest nearby
Another ride on the launch experience and it was time for food at the Golden Coral
Thats it for now!

Day 19 Universal Studios/ IOA
Day 19 was a rest day in the morning where I lazed about in the pool eating crisps, its a hard life. But after some much needed lunch after the crisps had been eaten it was time to head to Walmart, where I saw
if you've seen the brilliant video you'll know if not then here it is, don't watch it if you don't like swearing or rude things because you have no sense of humour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra_vnwIXS9M
Anyway..
I got to ride my tenth favourite coaster!
I used one of the online codes so I got to listen to For Whom The Bell Tolls going round!
After Rip Ride Rockit we did The Simpsons Ride and then...
my favourite shooter!
By this time it was time to go to the Hard Rock Cafe for tea which meant passing by this sexy beast
The Hard Rock Cafe is awesome because theres rock music and great food, and it is located next to awesome coasters, what more could you need!?
After tea we went to IOA, I think there was a storm which closed all the rides for a while but before it I think we rode Hulk and Spiderman.
Here is a picture that has no real significance
Day 19 was pretty short but don't worry Day 20 will appear soon!

Re: Florida 2012: Day 20 Magic Kingdom
The Final day at a park!
The Magic Kingdom, we always spend the last real day here:
We of course headed straight to Space Mountain but it was closed so my dad suggested that we should go on the TTA, a decision which gave us a very rare and amazing sight
Thats right, Space Mountain had its lights on!!
We of course went round again!
It was then time for Buzz lightyear, the shooter with the most annoying guns ever!
It was then time for
We then got
won't be seeing those anymore! :cry:
After an awesome ride on Space Mountain, love it, it was time for lunch
In this awesome place
Love this restaurant!
Then we rode
Then another ride on Space Mountain!
I love Space Mountain so much!
It was raining hard so when Sarah and I ran back into the queue from the shop we got soaked!
We then did
It's ok but nothing amazing
Main Street USA
It was then time for Splash Mountain, another ride I love
Before another ride on... Yeah you guessed it
Sadly after that we left, here we are at the TTC
Love the signs
That was the last theme park we visited on the holiday!
There is one day left to go!

Re: Florida 2012: Now completed
Here we go, the final segment of Florida 2012.
I woke up at some time and took photos of the villa.
My beds.
TV
I love having a private pool!
The living area, not really a room because there were no doors.
Table number 1
Table number 2, we used it for breakfast!
A rather bare looking fridge:
The [strike]garage[/strike] games room
No games room is compete without a washing machine and tumble drier
The [strike]garage door[/strike] exit from the games room to the outside.
It was then my job to finish all of the drinks, it was a hard job but someone had to do it.
We then loaded up the car with our [strike]stupid looking[/strike] tasteful suitcases.
We headed to Down Town Disney for a last meal.
Very tasty!
There was then plenty of time to go to Disney Quest!
Ah the Nascar game, it's fun winning and taking people out!
Human pinball!
We then had to go to the airport, bye hire car, see you on the darkside of the moon.
Waiting all holiday to get a Krispy Kreme, got some at the airport just before leaving!
All aboard!
Bye Florida, thanks for everything!
Food time!
On the plane!
Good morning!
Said it was good morning didn't I!
Hello, England!!!
After landing we went to a hotel to stay the night, a night of cheat and crisps.
There we go, it's over.
Thanks so much for reading about my families and my greatest ever holiday and the adventures that we got up to. I cannot explain how much of a good time I had.
In 72 days I will be off to Florida for the fifth time so expect a completed trip report by May 2016
I hope you all enjoyed reading the report as much as I enjoyed writing it!
Thank you goodnight.
