Airplane Ride!

One of Josh' colleagues owns a small 4-seater Cessna 172 airplane, and was super nice to fly to Peachtree city to take some of us for a ride. He even took his car-seat such that Jasper could go as well! What excitement! Josh went first with Jasper and Lilian, who were able to listen to all the interactions of the pilot with the tower and other pilots. They told me they looooooved it and even flew over poppy's and oma Becky's house, and noticed for the first time that they lived next to two huge lakes! :)

I played with Espen at the little playpark, which was just as much fun. I hadn't counted on flying at all, but sure felt priviliged to be able to go the second round! Jasper stayed adn Sofia joined instead of Lilian. It was fun to be in such a little airplane again, my last time was in 1996 when I took my exam, hahhah! The pilot let me 'co-pilot' and help land the airplane, even with my awful memory and after 16 years, I still felt I could remember most of it (or maybe he just made me feel good and pretended I was doing most, while in the mean time he was struggling against me to get the airplane pointing in the right direction :) ). Either way, it was soooooo fun. I was tempted to try to renew my license and start flying for fun again. That lasted for about 1 second, after which I reminded myself of the cost and the utmost lowest of lowest position on the priority list. :( Bummer! I wish I weren't so thrifty sometimes, darn Dutch roots! :)
