Except a large food-providing orange grove, of course. ;)

Any plan on where to best view in the park? It opens at 9 - I'm hoping to be there around then.

I was wondering the same thing. I was thinking anywhere there was a (mostly) unobstructed view all around. I'm thinking around the hub, but I suspect that will be a popular (and crowded) location.

According to the news, the shuttle is taking off from Edwards Air Force Base (where it just landed) around 7:15 tomorrow morning. It will fly over the local cities (Palmdale, Lancaster, etc.) before heading up to Sacramento then the Bay Area. It will then fly down the coast to Malibu, turn inland over LA and Valley spots the down to Disneyland before going back up to land. I personally don't expect to see the Shuttle over Disneyland before 10:00-10:30. While officially the landing time is tentatively scheduled for 11:00, word is that it will be closer to noon.

I was thinking the hub as well. I guess if it gets packed we can think of other spots?

It might be fun to go for higher ground, like the top of Innoventions or the Main Street RR Station, but I'd rather be in the middle of a crowd so everyone can ooh and ahh together. That said, if it's shoulder-to-shoulder insanity, I might have to take my kiddo to higher ground anyway.

I think the platform on Space would be appropriate but it's kind of an obstructed view.
