A round of applause....

It's another sea day today.  For the most part the seas have been pretty smooth...sometimes we get to rocking a bit in moderate seas but the main atrium area and also our stateroom is mid-ship and that's the best place to be when the seas seem a bit bouncey.

Yesterday we went to another one of Jim Kennedy's lectures on NASA and the space program.  He is a retired director of the Kennedy Space Center and relates stories about the NASA program and especially the space shuttle era.  His lectures have been very interesting and right up Terry's alley with all the information about the space shuttle program. 

Terry was doing laps around the ship one morning getting some exercise and stopped to chat with Jim Kennedy for a bit.  Terry relayed the story about how our Florida daughter got us tickets to the final space shuttle launch last June and encouraged us risk the last-minute trip to Florida to fulfill this item on our 'bucket list'.

Well, he was so impressed with what Terry told him that it became one of his 'stories' during the lecture.  All of a sudden he was mentioned Terry Angell and his daughter Jennifer who helped her parents fulfill a wish.  Jim gave Terry a NASA pin, and emblem signed by him with a note to be given to Jen.

That was very neat!!  You'll get your pin in just a few days, Jen!!
