1. One of the greatest memories of my life. I lived in Cocoa Beach at the time...
...and watched the Apollo 11 launch from the beach. And all the rest of the moon launches. And when the first space shuttle launched, I actually had a press pass and witnessed that from the big lawn in front of that giant digital clock you see in all the pictures. It was one of the most awesome experiences I've ever had.

4. More good pics
For the space buffs on here (count me in!), this guy has prepared a site that is 'over the top' with Apollo era photos:

http://www.apolloarchive.com/apollo_gallery.html

Check out the photo gallery if you have some time - it's well worth the visit.
