More Pictures from the Space Center

The kids pose together in front of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center. Standing under the replica of the Saturn V Rocket -- there are not enough words to describe how truly massive this rocket really is. The Davidson Center has one of these rockets lying on its side and it is so long and what is most amazing is how much of the rocket is used up and detached and how small the section is that the astronauts actually use while in space. It was an eye-opening experience for the kids. Kirsten and Steven take a turn at climbing the rock wall. Kirsten made it most of the way to the top, but got stuck and couldn't figure out how to make it the rest of the way. She has been to the top of other walls before. Steven made it up almost halfway before he made his descent back to the floor.
