Fabulous photos, and omg that looks like so much fun. :)

Thanks! Nearly every photo was taken by Stu. We had such an amazing time!

Heh, he sounds like me on holidays: I take all the photos too. :) I was wondering why there weren't so many photos of him, but that makes sense. <3

Haha, when he gets up, I will ask him how many photos he took on the trip. I'll see if he can exclude his time lapse stuff, though!

i'm still so sad i didn't get to meet up with you. my guts have an amazing(ly terrible) sense of occasion. :(

wasn't KSC fabulous? did you go see the saturn V rocket? that blew my damn MIND.

bekscilla October 27 2013, 21:27:36 UTC

I'm so sad too, but omg, with my guts, I tooootaally understand. Sometimes it's just not possible.

KSC was amazing! Is the Saturn V rocket the huuuge thing? That was just incredible

Crikey, actual real NASA? Hard to tell after all those terrifying fictional cartoon creatures :P

Faux Blues Brother is perfect BTW

And what a gorgeous snake! If only Miss Glory could have grown to that size, I'd have totally kept her :-)

Actual real NASA! I love it so :D

I have to say, I was impressed with Faux Blues Brother. We had a bit of a tiff on Rand's FB when he posted this until people realised that I wasn't bagging random cosplayers, I was bagging Universal Studios for using these women for Storm and Rogue. I didn't feel like they fit the look very well at all.

The snake was definitely gorgeous! I loved Gatorland :D

Go go NASA! We wants that Mars base in our lifetime, dammit :-)

Hmm - that's the best Universal can do? I've seen far better (i.e. closer to the original character's look) on random party photos online. Faux Ororo isn't too bad even if the costume is a bit cheap-looking, but Rogue is completely wrong. I'm sure there's someone out there who looks more like Paquin that could have got the gig?! I mean, after seeing what amateurs do - remember that awesome Weeping Angel that 'attacked' Jewel Staite in a hotel corridor? Or those Firefly fans' Shindig episode costumes made entirely out of gaffer tape? - it's something of a disappointment.

Exactly my thoughts. Stu looked at them and said he could find better Rogue cosplayers at Oz Comic Con, if he wants a photo with one.
