Monday Morning

So we are up and ready early this morning. I have waited about 45 minutes to get access to the one computer that is available in the lab. No biggies, but seems odd when this is such a technological town!

We are off to do our Shuttle Mission today. I am one of the lucky ones who gets to take a space walk! I am very excited! I will be in a machine that will suspend me, space suit and all! I also know that we will be taking our team photos today.

We are also going to take a field trip to the moon! "To the moon, Alice, to the moon!!" The last thing scheduled is a rocketry class.

Tomorrow we will have a 'cocktail' hour and guest speaker Homer Hickam from October Sky! How neat it that?

Not too much else to report quite yet. They keep us in the dark about a lot of things... perhaps is is a need to know basis? Ha ha. The days are packed full and we are all exhausted by the time we reach our dorm rooms to sleep.
