Tuesday I left the hospital where I have worked for over 37 years to return to Omaha, Nebraska for eventual retirement. Friends came to the plane to see me off.
Here is a selfie of me sitting in the Co-Pilot's seat.
So why is this my "first flying experience"? We have had a Mission plane for a number of years but I have never flown it either to nor from the capital city. It is a 1 hour 45 minute flight. It was also my "first flying experience" because I got to actually FLY the plane (while the pilot took several photos of me).
Our flight was cloudy but smooth. I was able to see some of the terrain below.
Here is us coming into the city.
Oh, I was the only passenger. Here is the back of the plane.
When I got to the capital city, I was picked up by long time friends so we could go out for lunch. I had my last Vogene pizza! I don't think that Omaha sells them which is probably a good thing!! They are made of white sauce with cream, ham, bacon and an egg on top.
Tomorrow I will fly to Paris, then Atlanta then Omaha.
Today's Positives:
1. I had a great flight to the Libreville.
2. The Guest house where I am staying for a few days is having a Thanksgiving meal this evening... because there are three of us who are American and a forth who did College in America.
3. My flights to the States are tomorrow night!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all who celebrate it!!
Wow. that is an exciting first! Praying for Safe Travels!
