The actual contol room from the Apollo 11 flight. Taken apart and relocated to the big Saturn V museum at NASA. Avoid this museum at all costs; though I will share some photos periodically.

Dude, that thing totally rocked, in my opinion. (You're talking the one at Cape Canaveral, yes?)

I guess I'm just a space geek.

Yep. We thought it was all a bit of a letdown. It was "Space for Dummies." Too many replicas. All the good (and real bits) are at the Smithsonian. It was also hot and their crowd control was lacking. While the Saturn V section was actually the best part, waiting on line for a bus was miserable and not worth the over-priced admission.

I feel it was geared towards kids and foreigners who don't know a lot about the space program. As someone who grew up on PBS, Discovery, National Geographic, and TLC there was nothing new for me.

It just was not a good day.

Perhaps it helped that we went in the off-season -- mid-November.
