We went to Aviation Day at the Manteo Airport. We (Megan, Hunter, Emma and I) took Gatlin, Scarlet's son, with us. We had an excellent time! Megan, Emma and Gatlin all flew for the first time ever on board a Cessna airplane. Hunter and Gatlin both helped to fly the plane!!
Hunter took a second ride on the Cessna. Megan and I opted to ride in a 1946 Waco Bi-plane. That was a truly awesome experience! The air on your face is just an indescribable feeling. Unexpectedly, the bi-plane felt more sturdy and solid beneath my feet. It was a smoother ride. Megan gave two thumbs up throughout the ride... she loved it!
Emma and Gatlin climbed all over the airport fire truck. Brian Mitchell, who works at the airport, let Megan and the little ones ride with him across the airport grounds in the truck, and help to drive the truck! Emma and Gatlin were so excited.
Hunter and Megan took turns driving the airports little golf cart, with Emma and Gatlin on board. It was great! We all got a little sun sitting around waiting for our turns on flights. We had funnel cake.... oooh I love funnel cake!
I'm tired. And today (Sunday) I hurt. I knew I would. But, it is so worth it to have had such a fun day with the kids!
