At 97:55:07, LMP talks briefly to Houston about taking decongestants. At the planned wake-up time, Houston plays "Reveille". When the CapCom tells them to "Today's the big day; hit the deck", the CDR says, "We've been there for a while." |

LM calls Houston. They've
been up quite a while so that Al Bean could re-lace Pete Conrad's boots
to give him some extra leg length and eliminate the pain he's been
experiencing because the suit was too short and digging into his
shoulders. [5 hours seems a generous overestimate add a link to the
ALSJ ] Pete is eager to get out. |

The crew was still "cleaning up"
at 152:04, after transferring dirty astronauts, rock boxes, etc to

awake |
