August Adventures
Wishful drivers.
We took advantage of the weeks between the summer and fall semesters to plan some interesting and enjoyable activities. Among the events were a trip to Kings Landing for a long and eventful Rock Springs canoe run, a dayat Fantasy of Flight in Polk City which is home to the world’s largest private airplane collection, a day at the Central Florida Zoo which was unfortunately shortened by torrential rain, and most recently a visit to Kennedy Space Center out on the east coast.
Florida's latest team of astronauts.
