I was only 5...almost 6... and recall it quite well. Was at my aunts house in Auburn NY. I remember the old Black and White console TV in their living room, my parents calling me into the living room because it was a monumental event.

Today is the splash down anniversary, strangely I do not specifically remember watching this like I remember watching the launch, moon landing, and first walk.

I do remember them having to be quarantined and waving from the window.

A sad story related to this thread

I was 4 and playing in my grandmother's backyard in Spain (My mother is spanish, I grew up in Madrid). My grandmother used to have a small and cute house in Madrid and my parents were leaving me with her when they were going to work. I can barely remember those times actually but I have very vivid memories about the beautiful flowers and the orange tree she used to have in her garden. I really liked this garden. When she got old and sick we had to move to the US and take her with us and sold the house. Recently I've been to Spain for checking a commercial property for sale in Madrid for one of my clients and I had the chance of visiting the house. Actually I regret it later because it was looking very old and abandoned, it really broke my heart.
