Cloud Hopping
It’s Wednesday, April 23rd and it’s a great day to fly. It is cold here, but sunny and clear. The plan is to fly a little over 7 hours to the East of St. John’s. Hopefully, we’ll see more icebergs.
Yesterday toward the end of the flight, more icebergs popped up, which was nice. I did get some decent pictures of them. I mean, I have 8000 feet above them and my zoom lens can only do so much! From what I hear, this should be the last patrol for this trip. It will be so nice to get home to see my boys. After being gone for almost 2 weeks, I’m missing them!! I told my oldest that I was cloud hopping in the airplane. He thought it was really cool and wanted to know if I was scared and if I fell through the cloud and so on and so on. Gotta love the child-like, innocent mind. I hope you have a great day! Enjoy the warmth!
