This is what we have learned since I started this post.... (lol)
1) There is now a 60% chance of cloud cover too thick to launch forecast on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, with chances getting worse later in the week.
2) Since we are taking ME from the airport to WDW, we are either going to have to: a) rent a car for one day or b) buy tickets on a Gray Line tour to the KSC. Two non refundable tickets are $230 for the premium view, and I haven't even priced a rental yet.
3) The same weekend, I have been told about Daytona 500 (forgot that), a biker rally, and the launch all in close proximity. Total traffic nightmare appears to be shaping up for the coast.
4) I have a friend who's father works for NASA here in Huntsville, and she told me that her father was told that if you didn't have some direct involvement with the launch, then don't bother going down, as they feel like the launch will be scrubbed. (only a third party rumor I have been told - DO NOT quote me on this...lol)
Based on all this, where does that leave myself and my wife at 3:48 on Saturday??
Watching the skies from the Magic Kingdom! If the launch does go as planned, I think that seeing it from the Happiest Place on Earth will be a nice way to start my vacation! And if it doesn't, heck, I'm at Walt Disney World!
