I don’t live in Florida, but I am dead serious about going to a shuttle launch. Whether I go back to FL with my family or alone, I want to see the Kennedy Space Center.
Meeting FReepers would make it all the better.
If you go, you’ll want to be there for several days. They often move the actual time around within the window. You’ll have plenty of time to tour Kennedy Space Center. You can get the tickets through the NASA web site. Orlando is about 50 miles away. There are also eighty million golf courses in Florida. It’s a bit of a hump, but you could drive to a Bucs or Dolphins game from Titusville, too.
