sweet ride






I had an awesome time out at cocoa beach saturday for the launch of the shuttle Discovery with a payload called Kibo the Japanese Experiment Module - Pressurized Module (JEM-PM) and the Japanese Remote Manipulator System (JEM-RMS) to the International Space Station.

Kibo meand "hope" in japanese. 'Kibowo nosete hassha' is a popular Japanese saying of departure loaded with hope.

It was a great day, not a cloud in the sky and surrounded with friends.

The pictures of the Discovery where taken by my Japanese friend Kyoko. I have to give credit where its due.
