In the meantime a quick tour to DC for another 11s trip

Cooper Patrick McLane is now 11. This means that he gets to go to Washington DC with Leslie and I and visit all the places that he wants to go see. Since he lives in the Orlando area we packed up the car with pickles and Vera Jean and drove up to Orlando this morning. We got to the airport around noon and we took Cooper into the airport left Vera and pickles with Erin.  We had a quick bite to eat made it through  TSA PreCheck security  and  eventually made it to our seats in first class.  The flight attendant let Cooper go up into the cockpit and see the pilots. They gave him American Airlines Wings to remember his visit by. He spent a lot of time looking out the window at the World As We flew over it. We landed in the middle of rush-hour but eventually got to our very nice Air B&B

In the cockpit getting to see all the different controls


Leslie is most assuredly a great-aunt


We were on the phone with the driver telling him where we were and he was right next to us!


We have arrived in Washington DC!


And famous DC traffic is allowing us to slowly see all the sights scroll by our car windows
