Jenna's Surprise

A good friend of mine just took a 3 year contract flying job in Asia! We had to send her off right. A surprise going away party in her town of Chicago!Jenna and I worked at two airlines together, where training partners and crash pad room mates.
The Chicago Express gang to see Jenna off.
Now I have a great excuse to visit Asia!

Training

Every year I have to go through a two day training event where we practice emergency procedures in a flight simulator. There is a lot of studying to be done before I go and while I'm there in Houston. The company puts me up in a hotel located on the airport property. So I am reading, seeing and hearing airplanes 24/7. Nice. This is a view from my hotel room!

Flying into Edinburgh


A view from above.

Edinburgh Scotland

Edinburgh is another great town we fly in to. I can understand why it is considered the best place to live in the UK.
Who wouldn't like a town with a "Royal Mile" and a castle on a hill.
The entrance to the castle.

Shops on the royal mile

Yes, they sell kilts!
Edinburgh has a lot of character!

New York from Above

Manhattan from above.
A view of Central Park (and Kira's apartment)
