Endeavours first mission was on May 7, 1992 called Maiden Flight: to capture and redeploy Intel Sat VI and that was 2 decades ago. Endeavours current mission is significant because it will be its last mission and will soon retire at the California Science Center in LA. Endeavour travelled 103.1 million miles; orbits 4,429 in total and the name Endeavour was inspired by the two ships of exploration by James Cook. It's total time in space is 280 days with 24 total flights and with 148 total crew members for 20 years. Installing the Magnetic Spectrometer will help study the Universe and its origin by searching for dark matters. It is designed to operate as an external experiment on the International Space Station. Supposedly, April 29, 2011 is the launch schedule but, due to technical problems on the heaters auxiliary power unit, NASA announced a 48 hr delay of the launch. The expected crowd in Cape Canaveral is 750K thus, Florida is beaming with the positive luck right now. Business in the Sunshine state is pretty awesome.

Good Friday Activities

Gumbo Limbo
In Naples, Florida, there are plenty of great restaurants to choose from. As a place for major tourism, Naples has no shortage of great restaurants. This makes the competition quite stiff for great restaurants. One of my favorite places to eat at in Naples is Gumbo Limbo. Gumbo Limbo is located right on the beach and offers some of the most fabulous views of the ocean.
If one wants to take a great vacation and enjoy inexpensive food on the beach, then Gumbo Limbo is the place to go. With bamboo floors and a fun tiki bar, Gumbo Limbo is simply the best place to relax and take a load off. I loved the burger and fries I had at Gumbo Limbo. The average plate of food costs about ten dollars, which is not too bad considering that one is right on ! the ocean. If one wants to enjoy some great food, then Gumbo Limbo is definitely the place to visit in town. Surprisingly, it is part of the Ritz Carlton hotel located in Naples. One would expect the food to be expensive, given its partnership with the Ritz, however it is still quite affordable.
Overall, I love this restaurant as a top pick in Naples, Florida. I think some good advice to remember is to set a home security alarm from securitychoice.com before leaving one's home, because you might not return after visiting this place!

Freschetta By The Slice
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of FRESCHETTA®. All opinions are 100% mine.
Today, hubby and I decided to have FRESCHETTA® By the Slice Pizza for lunch. We used the oven and cooked it for 18 minutes and we enjoyed every bite of it. There are four flavors of Freschetta by the Slice Pizza: BBQ Recipe Chicken, Vegetable Medley, Six Cheese Medley and my most favorite Chicken, Spinach and Mushroom.
Since we already tried two of it's varieties, this time we bought BBQ Recipe Chicken for me and Vegetable Medley for Hubby. It was so good that we clean our plates real good. The BBQ flavor is sweet with a kick of spicy in it and the toppings are so delicious! My husband enjoyed his vegetable medley because he can taste the freshness of the vegetables in it. The Pizza by the slice of Freschetta is the right portion that we can eat. No more "save for later" pizza slices because Freschetta by the Slice is a good size that can fill up a hungry stomach.
