Weekend in Orlando
After a busy Friday, Saturday was reserved for a visit to the Disney World. It's hard to describe the experience, the organization of the park, the kindness of the people and happiness that you can feel on every corner. It was definitely a fun experience, the best in my whole life. Pictures below speak louder than words .... :)
Kennedy Space Center - Mission for Sunday. Together with McNair students, we went to a place where the vision of man in the universe was created and it is still developing today. Simulation of a missile launch, then instructional film about the way the Apollo 13 went on the Moon and many other things and for a moment I thought that I was part of an expedition to travel beyond Earth's orbit. NASA center is an amazing place to look the world from a different perspective. Innovation, technology and research are key factors which enabled people to be part of the unimaginable things.
It is interesting that the system of McNair scholarships who spent time with us during our stay in Orlando was named after the one of the astronauts who tragically died on the launch of one of the spacecraft into the space. In his honor, a program was established and it helps excellent students in achieving their academic goals. I would like to thank everybody from MCNair for being great company in Orlando. It was really nice to meet those amazing people and I hope they will come to the Croatia soon.
