Space Cadets for a Day

During our recent trip to Houston, to get Marcel's mom at the airport, we took a trip over to the Johnston Space Center. That is Emma at the large logo in the visitor center. It was neat to see real space suits, satelites, rockets and movies. There were many activities but the tour of the technical part of the facility was preceded by a four hour wait. Though we wanted to do the hour long tour we did not want to wait so long. The aviation bug is still alive in Marcel...he was like a kid at a candy shop absorbing all the technical lingo they speak. Marcel once worked on a "unique" C-130 Hercules operated by NASA years ago while at Northwest Industries in Edmonton.
