HERE COMES THE WEEKEND!

We are starting to learn really important stuff, like the theory of how the space suit works and how to use it, for instance how to secure it in an emergency, depending on whether we’re landing in water or on terra firma. I’m paying very close attention not only because this is essential knowledge, but also because I find it absolutely fascinating.

In the early evening of June 25, I had a phone conference with everyone on the Mission team. We hold a meeting once a week to make sure everything is going as planned. For instance, we discuss the payload, the launch, preparations, our (very tight) deadlines, and so on.

The following day would be the last day of the school week! Hooray! I couldn’t wait to get to Ibiza, where I was going to spend the weekend with my love and our kids. I was also taking along the members of my crew for a change of scenery, and we were all ecstatic in anticipation of seeing the sun again!

After my turn on the flight simulator, we set off in a hurry so we’d get to Ibiza as soon as possible!
