Went to the ol’ airport again, just for fun, to go watch planes.
We saw a buuuuunch of them. But some of the highlights:
Bye, PDX! See you soon, Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Mike!

Oh, look, I found myself having fun at the airport again.
It’s exhausting having fun.
After starting school again, I needed a good trip to the airport to rest from my weary grind!
On the way to Nevada, I had six hours to kill before our flight boarded. This is partially how I spent it.

My little Portland suburb covered in snow. Ain’t it pretty?
BUT I HAD PLACES TO GO! It was about to be my birthday and I was scheduled to get on an airplane (an airplane!!!) to see Nana and Papa!
Long story short: the roads were insane, we abandoned our car, waited for an Uber driver with chains on his tires, sat in a standstill on the freeway for an eternity, just missed our flight, and finally booked ourselves on a flight scheduled to leave 4 hours later which was delayed an additional 2 1/2 hours. So there was a lot of waiting. (And, by the way, I was the awesomest kid ever and Mommy and Daddy thanked their lucky stars that I am an airplane and airport fanatic and determined to make this trip happen.)
We finally took off at 11:20pm and I got to celebrate the stroke of midnight of my birthday, quite fittingly, on Alaska Airlines. Then I finally fell asleep. And thanks to Nana and Papa for picking us up at 1:10am and then hanging out with me when I asked for “dinner” at 2am.
Me, Mommy, and Daddy went to my favorite place on earth, the Portland International Airport, to watch airplanes take off and land. It was my favorite day in quite a while!

Yesterday, Mommy and I went to the Portland International Airport to watch airplanes takeoff and land. I saw United, Delta, Southwest, Virgin America, some private jets, a few recreational aircraft, and a military fighter jet!
