We were scheduled to pick some friends up at Orlando airport on a shuttle launch night a couple of years ago. We hit bumper to bumper traffic on the Turnpike about 10 miles south of the Villages. We were over 1 1/2 hours late getting to the airport for the pickup.

It's hard to believe that many people are trying to get to the cape for the launch.

BTW it was scrubbed that evening.

A couple of days later, we had a pretty good view of it from our front porch in Chatham. You never get tired of seeing it.
