After a planned trip to Florida with coworkers failed to happen, Lisa decided she'd take me and go anyway. Flattered that she thought of me after her coworkers, and that she remembered I love Florida, I agreed. Since Joseph moved back to Michigan, my resident welcoming committee was notably absent this year, and we had to brave the harsh Whorlando airport by ourselves. Once we arrived at our Cocoa Beach destination, a strict schedule of beach and sleep was implemented immediatly, interrupted only by trips to Kennedy Space Center and Medieval Times. Lisa was very excited about visiting NASA for the first time. She took me on the Up Close tour which was cancelled due to terrorists last time I visited so this was the first time I got to see the shuttle launch pads from 500 feet. Lisa was upset neither pad had a shuttle ready to launch due to a recent hailstorm, but rolled her eyes in excitement after I assured her we would come back again and again until she saw one on the pad. After a full day of calming Lisa down from the space center, we went to Medieval Times where Lisa enjoyed the soap opera which I had previously ignored. Apparently all the talking they do between the fighting and jousting actually creates a storyline. The absence of the Josephs from the greater Whorlando area definitely tuned down the fun factor, but being on a sunny beach with a hot woman helps make up for it.
