Note, if you tell the cashier that you just want to go in to the
souvenir store, you can buy a cheaper ticket that is fully refundable
if you return within, I think, two hours.
Whats the big deal about paying admission to a well run classy facility?
Besides which most museums charge a entry fee of some sort.
Yet $20 to KSC makes it a freak show?
The Gift Shops were the absolute *worst* part of my KSC visit. Very
schlock. Trying to find something not made in China was near
impossible. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
And there are so _many_ of them! A medium-sized one at the SV Center, a
bigger one at the Astronaut HOF, and the big kahuna right inside the
entrance to the main Visitor Center. There might also be one at the
Gantry Observation "Tower" but I'm not sure. I remember going there
back in the late '80s and spent a fortune in the gift shop. This time I
didn't even want to touch anything.
Nevertheless, I bought a mouse pad with the Meatball on it (made in
China). It's shot already and it's only 3 months old. My Beavis and
Butthead mouse pad is still kicking at 5+ years.
