LAST STOP T0 CHARLESTON Last but not least on l-IUNLEY s Oddys sey was the space coast of Florida. Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach.. Even before leaving the ship one could see the giant launching structures and mammoth assembly buildings at Cape Kennedy Space Center which was two miles away. The pace of life there was much more re- laxed when compared to the fast-pulse of Fort Lauderdale. The beaches weren't as big or as crowded, but the excellent surfing conditions and swimming areas drew many l-lunley-ites to the beach. Yes, there were girls in Cocoa Beach too, and most of them were from Florida and were down on the beach more to relax than to live it up so much, consequently they were also friendlier and easier to get to know. . Despite it's relatively small size, the space coast boasts many swinging night spots which were visited by HUNLEY men. Cocoa Beach draws people from the surrounding area who are out to enjoy themselves, and hard rock bands such as PUNCH, which played at George's Galaxy Club, entertained standing- room only crowds. Within a two-hours' drive was Walt Disney World near Orlando. A bus was rented by Special Services and for 58.00 one could enfoy a full day in the Magic Kingdom- ride the monorail, travel with the Pirates of the Caribbean, fly with Peter Pan, or sail down the jungle rivers of the world. And that wash t alll Disney World is much bigger than its counterpart in California and many of the gift shops and restaurants were authentic Spanish villas or Revolutionary War Taverns. Outside of the Magic Kingdom, there was still much to do in the World, lt boasts three resort hotels, one of which allows the mono- rail to glide by diners in the restaurant. There is a camping area for the more adventurous minded with horse-back riding and hiking trails. One day, let alone one week at Disney World is definitely not enough to enjoy all it has to offer, as many crewmembers discov- ered. Ivlany scientific minded land just plain curiousl sailors visited the Kennedy Space Center. One of the main attractions isthe Vehicle Assembly Building which is one of the largest buildings in the world. Approxi- mately 2O men attended the Sky-Lab Wel- come l-lome and Awards Ceremony held in VAB. H.onored guests were the last three Sky-Lab astronauts and many military and civilian dignitaries. Well, that was it. The last stop before Char- leston and time to settle down and get back to work. Considering the suntans that were gained as well as the new friends and experi- ences, most of the crew were rather pleased that they were able to see more of the world and its people.
