Thought I would share some pictures from two different flights two weeks ago. Both of the flights were with my japanese students from Tokai University. We went to St. Paul where we took a break to eat and stretch our legs. One of my students picked an award winning Thai restaurant in downtown Minneapolis to eat at. Unfortunately, we got to St. Paul around 5:30pm and had to take two freeways during rush hour to get there. The worst part was that I had to drive since I was the only one with a US license. It didn't help that we got a Ford Fuzion from the airport either. I just know that I never want to do that again.
In the same week we had planned to go to Rapid City, SD to see Mt. Rushmore, but because of strong west winds and a lack of time we had to replan our route and ended up going to Jamestown and Bismarck. We met Mom and Dad at the airport and went out to the Fortune Cookie to eat. Normally it's me and two Tokai students, but since we were going to go to Rapid City, they invited another japanese student along with to observe. We had a full load in the plane and in the Jeep, since one student had to ride in the back. It was still a fun flight and along the way I took some pictures of Tappen and I think one of Alkali Lake as well as parts of Bismarck, including Lincoln.
