Saturn V in the background. They were building the walkway around so this was about as close as you can get

Saturn V from I-565  (....I was stopped.... traffic jam  :P )

Space Shuttle Pathfinder. Which has never been in space, but they take parts from it to use in the others.

Shame you couldn't get closer to the Saturn V, I've been by the one in houston, and it is a sight to behold.  So massive!!

I was there about 6 years ago when I went to Aviation Challenge. We got to get right up close to everything, and the last nights party was under the shuttle.

Nice photos! I can't wait to visit Cape Canaveral... If I can afford a flight out of Australia...  ;D I can't help but "ROFL" at Pathfinder... I know it has many differences from the "production" shuttles... but I don't know what... Personally I like the Saturn IB MUCH better than the Saturn V... but I thought they were bigger. These pictures make them seem small.  ;D ;)  [smiley=tekst-toppie.gif] [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
