WM25 - Day 2 - Out of this world!

After a quality night's sleep, woke up pretty early and caught a load of US Breakfast TV, which was funny as most of the news was from London and the riots and the President visiting Gordon Brown and the Queen...funnily enough, Mrs Obama brought the Queen an iPod...now is it just me or not...but can you really imagine old Queeny dancing around Buck Pal with her iPod cracked up to full, rocking out to Bon Jovi? Actually...nah, forget it...neither can I!


Went and tucked into a hearty fayre courtesy Burger King...$6 for a load of grub...marvellous! French Toast for breakfast...Marvellous!


Then we jumped in a taxi we had booked and took a ride to NASA!


Have you seen the size of the shuttle that was there?

It was absolutely huge and was something that needs to be seen to be believed.


The whole of NASA was awesome, from touching moon rock to seeing what life is like on board the shuttles to even eating some Astronaut Strawberries! I'm bringing some Astonaut food home so it's all good...and tasty...!



We were in NASA for a good 4 hours before heading back to the hotel. We had a few drinks in the bar before Brunning, Penny & Penny, Tipton, Parker and Paddy all turned up from their flight. We all had a few more drinks before heading out for an evening at HOOTERS!


My first ever trip to Hooters was a sight to behold. The food was amazing (even the Hooters Hot Sauce that I chucked down my throat to prove that Northern Boys really are hardcore) and the women were all cute...but it all just made me think about how much I was missing my own little lady who's back in Bradford (heehee, Bingley even eh Charlotte?).


A few of the others headed out after Hooters but some of us just went back to the hotel for another couple of beers and then bed.


Here's the gang at Hooters :
