ISSDC Day 3 – 28/7

After a very early start, we went to Port Canaveral Jetty Park, to watch the Atlas 5 NROL 61 launch (which many of us almost missed, as we were in the sea.)

We then chilled on the beach all day – with some students going on an hours run!?! In 36 degree Celsius heat?!?

Having returned to the hotel, we lounged in the pool – playing water polo with numerous injuries including cramp – whilst other teams began to trickle in.

We finished the day with a trip to Cracker Barrel (with exceptional customer service, and healthy portion sizes), which we followed with more card games, ready to check out of our rooms by 7 tomorrow morning, ready for the room changes for the competition.
