WPAFB

After being stopped last week by the $7 dollar parking prices for the Tomato Festival of Reynoldsburg ("Birthplace of the Tomato"), we decided to head west and check out the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio, which is free. Below is M and her pop in front of a C-47. Although, M looks comfortable, she actually wasn't in this position very often.



Instead, she wanted to push her own stroller. This is how we moved through most of the museum and let it be known that M cannot steer!


We decided to have lunch early (Does that sound like us?) in order to beat the rush. We ate at the reasonably priced Air Force Cafe. Dad chose a double cheeseburger, Mom chose a Jr. Hot Dog, and M chose a flourescent pink strawberry ice cream bar. That counts as a serving of fruit, right?



After lunch M soon fell asleep. Here her mom is photographed in front of a large plane that has a clam-shell opening front where cargo can be loaded. These planes are REALLY big.


At the museum they also had a B-2 Bomber. We thought it looked like a space ship/UFO.


Before we left, we stopped by the plane which M's great grandfather flew in WWII.


Here's another shot of the plane. Pop Quiz! What plane is this? No family members are allowed to respond. The answer will be posted soon!

So is guessing the plane from "Top Gun" probably wrong and revealing too much of my ignorance, or is it slightly humorous?

If someone guesses correctly, do we get more M pics?
