Airport Visit

Back on October 2 (yes I am behind) we took a visit to a local, small airport.  Small as in non-commercial.  One of our preschool friends has her pilot's license and has flown airplanes there, so we had the inside connection!  When I said we were visiting an airport, Aria instantly wanted to know if we would get to ride in an airplane.  She definitely didn't inherit her mom's fear of flying.  While I had to squash that hope, she was excited to get to climb in the airplane.  I wasn't sure how much learning would happen for 3 year olds at an airport and I can't say there was a whole lot, but the experience was sure fun and memorable.  I learned quite a bit from the lady who gave us the tour.  And Aria was excited about seeing the different flaps move on the wings when you turned the steering wheel.  It was a win.  It's great to have friends with connections!
