Star Wars

Last Wednesday our grandson, John Michael, came to visit for a few days. He calls it his "vacation". We're taking him back home today, but we've been surprised at how well he's doing. Not a single sign of home sickness. That's great!

Yesterday the three of us traveled across Huntsville to the U.S. Space & Rocket Center where the Star Wars exhibit is in full swing. It's called "Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination". And there were a lot of people there. Check out that parking lot in the background above. We had to park in the secondary lot behind Nancy, who took the picture.

We toured the exhibit where we met a lot of familiar characters like Chewbacca. I enjoyed it as much as John Michael did. Nancy took plenty of pictures. We left several hours later after going though the museum and checking out all the real rockets. No, we didn't find any like the one below. But the Saturn V in the picture above is the real thing.
