We started the day off by traveling in our AUTOMOBILE to eat breakfast at a restaurant known for "pan-a-cakes"! Yum-o. Then, we parked our AUTOMOBILE, bought tickets and hopped on a TRAIN! The TRAIN was really fast. It took us to a near-by air force base where we were jumped on a BUS. The BUS took us to the main part of the base and dropped us off so we could walk the rest of the way to see the PLANES. We were thrilled to finally see the huge PLANES! We got our pictures taken with a soldier, rode up the ramp of a cargo PLANE (unbelievable big), and saw PLANES take off and perform acrobats in the sky. It was awesome! We couldn't have asked for a prettier day. While we were waiting for the day's events, the air force band was playing some tunes. Zach and Brooke enjoyed dancing while we cheered them on. When the air show started, a PLANE flying high above us, dropped a parachutist down. While he was flying down, a flag deployed and we all stood for the National Anthem. Remembering 9 years ago yesterday and being a part of this was very moving and a great way to pay tribute to those that serve our country. A parachute team was next to perform and Brooke has decided that she wants to parachute too! Next up was a professional AIRPLANE acrobat flier. He was so good, no one wanted to take their eyes off the sky.
Luke said, "I want to see more!" So...I'm sure we'll be heading back next year this time to enjoy more of our PLANES, TRAIN, AUTOMOBILES, and BUSES!
