Discovery

Although this fun event occurred one month ago and I clearly thought it was cooler than Judah did, I still want to document it....

We saw a space shuttle! The very last space shuttle ever (for now anyways). A space shuttle "riding" on an airplane~the way I described it to Judah.

I've been to Cape Canaveral and grew up near a NASA's Space & Rocket Center. However, to see Discovery circling our great city from our National Mall before it landed at Dulles' Smithsonian was way cool.

and much to my surprise, it became closer

and closer

and closer

I think Judah understood as best he could, but he probably had more fun blowing bubbles with Marilyn.

Space shuttles flying over the Mall. Just reason #5,479 I love this city.
