all watching launch attempt

I didn't realise everyone else was so interested in the Space Shuttle launch.

I kept everyone (Dace and Sandra in particular) updated on the proceedings through the morning. Answered questions.

During dinner, Rob had his laptop going. I had the netbook running. We both had good (free) wireless signals in the dining room. We watched the Close Out Crew working in the White Room.

Everyone was very disappointed when NASA scrubbed... They were experiencing the same volatile weather we were.

At that point, it was 4 scrubs in Florida for me. Was not meant to be, and a bit disappointing. I remember that afternoon, thinking that the weather was going to cooperate and then seeing the big black clouds roll in - when they scrubbed the launch the crowd let out a big "aawwwhhhhh - noooooooo!".
