Reunion 2005, Orlando FL
JUNE 23rd
"Blast off in the tropics" at the Kennedy Space Center. The start of our first official tour of Reunion 2005.

The KSC attendees.

The tantalizing rockets are just beyond our reach, but good enough for a photo opportunity.

Waiting in line took longer than usual. For some reason they couldn't find our group reservation, then couldn't return our Notre Dame credit card! I knew the Feds have a deficit but did they think they'd get much by taking a non-profit organization's credit card?

Leaving the center.

On the drive in we whisk by the Space Shuttle Assembly Building.

After a film of the Apollo program we were led into the adjacent hall where an entire Saturn V rocket lay on its side.

It seemed to stretch on forever.

This gives you a good perspective on size. The next time you see film of the Saturn V, remember these USA initials.

Later that afternoon there was a picnic at Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake, sponsored by Nena Adonay.

Due to the threat of rain we met beneath a covered area.

With beautiful surroundings.

B'BQue-han.

Kain na Dameans!

Brothers James "the greater" & James "the lesser" (foreground) chatting with Bro. Kevin & Bro. Paul, and your webbist listening attentively.

Kainan na.

Don't look at me! I didn't spill anything.

The Redd/Taculad/Molina family.

Ray Rogan, the center of attention.

The Esma family, with Mai (far right) being the youngest Damian in attendance.

Yeah, there were logistical glitches, yet we had fun making friends with the park ranger (center) who drove us all up to the gate -Filipino style- hanging all over her truck.
