St. Martin

Back taxiing off the runway in St. Martin. See the other airplane at the end of the runway?

MAHO BEACH
Maho beach is famous in St. Martin because it is located feet from the airport. Airplanes are constantly entertaining beach goers all day with how close they are.
I was entertained watching people getting hit with the jet blast.
If you look closely in this picture you can see sand flying and people struggling to stand while an airplane is taking off!

Oslo, Norway
SLEDDING!!!
The day we flew into Oslo it had snowed 15 inches!
In 1952 the Winter Olympics was held in Olso. The mountain where the Luge contest was held still has the trail on it, and is open for the public toboggan down it!
So the crew and I rented toboggans to give it a try!
The first race down the mountain took us about 15 minutes. Once at the bottom you take a train back up to the top of the trail.
By the end of the day my competitive side had me beating everyone down the mountain in eight minutes. It is always fun when you can spend the day acting like a kid again!

4 Days in Belfast
I had another 4 day trip to Belfast in March. Here is the whole crew at the Crown Bar in Belfast where we had some Guinness (it always tastes better in Ireland).
The crew and I did the Black Cab tour where we learned about the politics of Belfast. On the tour I saw the only standing wall in Europe that divides the city, Protestants on one side and Catholics on the other. The city has been divided since the early 1800's and the wall is still standing and inforced today.
The flight home from Belfast. Somewhere over Greenland.
