Today we drove to Dulles to see the Air and Space Museum. It was a really cool and interesting place.
They had a realsize Spaceshuttle, lots of rockets and missiles as well as plenty stuff you need in space.
Another big topic were planes from all different times, like WWII.
After this great trip Monika and John took us to Don Pablos where we had a very tasty Mexican lunch. YUMMIE
After waiting 3 hours at the airport in Nuremberg we finally took off on our tiny plane to Paris. I was very excited because it was my very first flight. But it was cool.
In Paris we were picked up by a lady and brought to our gate like VIP’s, to get our plane to Washington DC. But before boarding we had to show them all our cabin luggage. Thanks 9/11. The picture below is our plane to Washington DC.
A cool feature on board was, that each had his own TFT where we were able to see the onboard camera during the whole flight, including start and lading which was a really cool thing.
The service on board was really nice and we could see a bunch of films, play games and so on during the flight. But the best of all was the beautifull view above the clouds.
After arriving at Dulles International airport and a quick and painless ‘check-in’ we were picked up by Monika and John. We drove to their house where we’ll stay for the next few days. We couldn’t belive where we would sleep, but see yourself.
Wow. Finally we take off.
After a lot of planning we’re now on vacation. We’ll leave Germany from Nuremberg, change the plane in Paris and than we’re off to Washington DC. (see map below)
I am very excited to see the other side of the big pond. Well, at least a pice of it. We will start our tour in Washington DC. After a few days we’ll fly to St. Louis where we plan to visit Chicago for a few days too, followed by a week in Miami which probably will be the most chilled part of our roundtrip.
So much about our holiday plans. I’ll try to post on a regular base our impression from oversea.
Until next time.
