A Day in Oshkosh

Dear Sis,

Friday was a big day. We woke at 4:30 am, left the house at 5:30 am, so we could take off at 6:30. It was William’s first airplane ride. He was very eager to go, go, go!

It was a three hour flight to a local airport near Oshkosh, Wisconsin. From there, we caught a shuttle to the air show. Since we had such an early morning we were ready for lunch upon arrival.

Since we were in Wisconsin, we had to get fried cheese curds to go with our ordinary burgers and hot dogs:) Think fried mozzarella cheese, but yummier!

After lunch, we checked out as many expo tents and tables as we could before William had had his fill.

Then, Daddy and cousin Blue found us a good spot to watch the airshow while they did more exploring. William loved eating snacks, climbing in and out of his wagon, and watching all the stunt pilots. 

Around 4 pm, the day caught up with William and he napped in the wagon, while we walked around and looked at airplanes.

The wagon Daddy got for the airshow is a great addition to our kiddo travel collection. It folds up smaller than our stroller and is more suited to a rapidly growing kiddo:)

After the airshow, we flew an hour to a good resting point in Illinois where we got a hotel room for the night. We completed the remaining 2 hours of the flight home the following day. He is a picture of William with his “Wee” arms, up and ready to fly:)

Not only is cousin Blue crazy for aviation, but William is trilled by it too. He even learned to say plane on the ride home! But, he still prefers to say, “Zoom Zoom” instead.

Love,
