Today, I had one of the best adventures of my life!
I flew in a helicopter!
It was a "Huey" to be exact.
It's was a Spouse's Day thing on base.
We flew at 500 ft.
And at 100 mph.
Over the white sandy beaches.
It was awesome!
Here's the one I actually flew on:
The ride was so smooth!It wasn't really that noisy.
I did have ear plugs in.
There was one time we went up a little and had to come back down.
Felt kinda like going down a rollercoaster.
So fun!
I was smiling the whole time.
Literally! : )
Flying past all the posh resorts.
Everybody on the beach would watch and wave.
The pilots would wave back.
Everyone was so proud of the military. I am too.
Flying over the crystal clear blue water.
I saw 10-15 dolphins. 1 shark. 3 sting rays. A huge school of fish. Tons of jelly fish.
Man, it was so awesome! I can't even describe it all. I swear the window has my fingerprints on it from pointing to everything I was seeing! It probably has a forehead smudge on it from me leaning to see everything too. : ) This was a great place to fly over too. So much to appreciate and see. Matt is so jealous. I'm sure he'll get his time soon. : )

AWESOME!! Can't believe Matt didn't get to ride w/ u.
He couldn't ride! Spouses only.
I'm a spouse... where do I sign up?! That looks awesome. ~jen~
THAT IS SO COOL!!! Now we just have to figure out how to get finance spouses included...
:-)
Hey I gave birth I want to ride. That is too cool.
Wow! They didn't do that when I lived there! Of course there was 9-11 around that time.
Looks like fun...way better than the ride on a C-130!!!
Wow, that looks like so much fun! I'm jealous. I told Brad they need to have a spouse's day at Lockheed. Of course, I can't ever even go visit him at work since it's all secure what with gates and armed guards at the door and all.
