STS-135 Shuttle Launch Recap

Since I kept posting while on the road, a long narrative of my recent trip to see the shuttle launch would be redundant, but I did want to include one wrap-up post with map, statistics and a few of my favorite pictures from the trip. Each pine on the map includes a brief description for each notable stop I made along the way.
