And I am SO GLAD I was not around when that lady ate the food off of the floor. Incredible YUCK!!!

LOL about all of the airline stories here. My only story for this trip was having to call a SECOND Space Camp van because the one that was supposed to get me had already left by the time I got down to baggage ... hmmm - I wonder who could have taken it??? :)

After reading the posts from the rest of you, I am sure glad that I drove to camp and back. My 10.5 hour drive was made with no anomalies in either direction and beautiful flight conditions. My luggage arrived with me! I learned from past airline problems that it can take less time to drive than to fly from Michigan!
My time at the reunion camp was, as always, a fantastic experience. The best part is always the new friends that I make. I was thrilled to learn about this forum to keep in touch.
I agree with Richasi about having a 6 to 8 hour EDM as part of future reunion camps. All of us had so much past experience that a one or two hour mission just wasn't very interesting or involving. I think that a week or longer reunion camp once a year would be better, perhaps as Rich suggested, organizing it ourselves. The Hab1 official reunion camp sounds great, doesn't it?
Thanks to all of Challumbia for making this another great Space Camp experience for me. I will send my photos to Vince for the compilation when I get them.

Gee, I just don't know who could have taken the van. Perhaps someone on the same flight as you were?

Well, as long as they were a fellow White Sox fan, then it would be OK... :)
