a few days ago, we had to run an errand way up on the airport side of the city.
and to make the drive seem less lame to our children, we decided to find a place close to the runway where we could watch the airplanes take off.
a quick google search revealed there is actually an official viewing area. who woulda thought?
it turned out to just be an unkept parking lot with picnic tables..
but whatever, it was close to the airplane action and that's all we were looking for!
and it was actually quite busy. with people who you wouldn't expect to be watching airplanes.
the boys thought it was pretty neat to watch the big, noisy airplanes zoom past.
and, honestly, it is super fascinating.
my brain bounced between thoughts of how impressive airplanes are, and how badly i wished i was on whichever one of those impressive planes that was heading to a lush tropical island!
