Well i hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday.

 

I thought i would share our weekend (Sunday)

 

As we all know there have been many government cut backs and this includes air shows.

Well after many years of these cut backs finally we got some luck.

 

The Cleveland Air show is back.

I had been watching there web site for many month just to get the best tickets.

The day had come and i jumped on them tickets about three months ago and i got box seats in the front row.

Now the hard part come into play, for i needed to keep this a surprise for hong.

 

I needed to hide the tickets so i figured the best place was in my gun safe??

 

So last Saturday night during dinner i told her we are going to Cleveland early in the morning.

She say WHY???

 

Don't worry this is going to be one of the best days of your life.

 

Now I'm not sure about any of the other wife's here on candle but hong has never seen,heard,smelled or even touched a air plain in her life.

In fact she had never been on a plain until her interview in GZ.

 

Let alone anything military (Has only seen them on TV)

 

So Sunday morning we get up early get our coffee and head out to Cleveland (It's just a 30min drive) and during the entire time she is asking why we go to Cleveland.

I'm trying best not to spoil the news and i just say again, This will be one of the best days of your life.

 

We pull into the lake front airport and there are plains of all makes and models.

from old to new lined up in the infield.

 

If you could think of it they had it.

Once she seen the plains i almost had to hod her down for the fact she wanted out of the car even before we found our parking spot.

 

Of course the first thing she see's???

 

The Blue Angles.

 

So with that being said and no more writing, It's time for photos.

(I also have video but it is recorded in HD and may have to convert it so i can upload to you tube) hopefully I'll post video soon.

Great pictures. I'll bet she loved it for sure. I am so glad. When we have the Blue Angels and air show here at the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base, Air Station every year Liren is like so and it's all FREE. The only thing that she gets excited about is a trip to put money in the bank.
