it was time to clean calypso up while we head north our first stop
to watch a rocket launch at cape canaveral
do you think we'll see a rocket launch i think we'll see a rocket launch weather looks a little
bit iffy but um well it's all cloudy and there's just some storms so i don't know we'll see
well i think they would have called it by now no no last second really yeah they're gonna try to
get it off the ground weather doesn't look good for tomorrow so they're gonna try but we have
an awesome spot right here right out port canaveral cape canaveral you can hear uh
f-15s patrolling oh i should i see them up there i don't know if you can see
the rocket is over there and there's white smoke coming out of it i imagine that's fuel
or something hopefully we see a lunch today what do you think race would you like to see a rocket
launch yeah yeah my second time we saw your one the other night but now it's gonna be watching
today probably that's right and this one this time
there's two people on it one of them's a marine right yeah yeah we're flying the marine colors
today signify that we got a marine going up in space along with our other american and canadian
we got a one canadian and a half canadian on board i'm bored who's the half canadian me yeah
so we have like 13 minutes to launch enough time to eat lunch
ground pumps continuing to put the propellant in to first and second stages
next significant issue co-op that we're going to hear probably be inside the team minus 10 minutes
when they talk to the crew we'll listen for that but at the moment everything continuing to look
good at t minus 12 minutes and 20 seconds so everything's progressing down with the count
okay final setup started ready raised three and a half minutes three and a half minutes and the
strongback is now reclining away from the falcons we have like front row seats yeah it's beautiful
here it goes this anchorage just off kennedy space center is so sweet for viewing a launch
get it
did you go through the clown breeze
yeah there's two dudes on that reese
the marines on there
dude
oh you can feel it
feel that look at that
look at that spiral of the smoke
what'd you think of that rocket launchers god was that awesome could you imagine being on that yeah
what do you think you'd want to yeah all right but why does it doesn't blow up on me
yeah it launched that float yeah we don't want that right that was really cool you could like
feel the vibration and like that was like front row seats pressure yeah that was really cool it's
like you're shaking yeah all the way out here we're about 10 miles away from the launch pad
that was perfect timing and we got to meet up with lyon cheryl for the launch
they also just sailed back from grenada
yes our little cat babies here's trace come say hi tris they're on the same journey have the
same hopes dream about the same things and are creating the same memories that we are
never mind that awful voiceover it was so cool to catch the launch with them and then continue up
the icw together we're tucked away to marina time to get some stuff done first up laundry
all right i'm gonna make my way up to the clubhouse
to do my last two loads of laundry one of which is my bedding oh the reason i had so much is because
the bedding got super salty on our passage with all the windows open so yeah whenever we're at
a marina i try to use large washer and dryers to knock out big loads or to wash large items
we're down in the stern the port side stern
and we have two batteries here for the thruster that's back here and all the wiring and everything
for this thing is back in there so i have to crawl back up in there which is pretty tight
this is our stern thruster stuff battery charger for the batteries uh you saw
here the fuse goes on off switch thruster box let's just take this thing apart
our stern thruster blew a fuse just before we left grenada it wasn't a priority and we
had a lot going on so it got pushed it was great to finally get to repairing it though
while he's doing that i'm going to try on a new bikini that i received in the mail
it actually feels like i'm wearing nothing i love the color
it's pretty good it's like a mix between a scoop and a thong
this bikini is from bikini addiction i love it i love the bright color and how
sexy it makes me feel which is the most important part if you ask me
should i replace the fuse turn it back on now she'll try to do the thruster um you're going
to push them both on and then just try the back one all right so i'm going to flip them
both on it's on the yellow buttons on and we're just going to try the stern thruster
yeah do the other way
do it a couple times
cool i'm glad that's over that was weighing on me for a while cool well done this is great news um
in grenada when we were docking somebody had thrown a blue glove in the water and our bow
thruster sucked it up so um that was really like a relatively easy fix so that's nice it's
nice having a working bow thruster for sure let's check out jeremiah you fit down there
jeez
i was worried for a second yeah me too it's like is he gonna get out of there yeah that's
cool one more thing off post um and you had help honey good job honey it wasn't all on you
fantastic coming up on the lazy geckos it looks hard moments like this that you'll
remember probably set itself with me oh there's another one coming during a storm you should
put stuff in your microwave how's your fill assortment you slide the sticker on go for it
not that it's fixed but we have tried i have an hour left on my
got watch uber to get some groceries and we saw this cute little bar to
stop that tara said she'd take one for the team
i thought i saw you coming so i flipped it on here's your coffee thank you baby
