Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, Florida
Surf, sand and space shuttle. Having been down three times, I can consider myself exceptionally fortunate; but at least once in your life, treat yourself to a sunset jog down Cocoa Beach before witnessing a space shuttle launch.
No painting, no novel, no symphony, no great piece of cinema or architecture compares to the beauty of the Space Shuttle towering & illuminated. And there is nothing mankind can witness that is as beautiful or as powerful as the launch of human beings into space.
