Much to my pleasant surprise, we've managed to schedule a day at Kennedy Space Center in April while we're down in Florida for a few days. I'll be there with my wife and 12 year old daughter, neither of whom is a big space nerd.
Would be interested to hear what folks think are the best things to do while there. Certainly not time to cover the whole place in a day, so we'll have to pick and choose. I have seen the trip planner on their website and am using that as a starting point. I'll also note that my daughter is not interested in intense rides, so stuff like the Space Shuttle Experience is probably a no-go.
The bus tour (including Saturn V) is a no-brainer. Likewise, I'm pretty sure we're going to do lunch with an astronaut. Other than that, not yet decided.
What are your recommendations?
