We had a GREAT time in Suffolk this weekend. Mike was volunteering at the Festival of Flight Fly-In ... so Griffin and I joined him there on Saturday afternoon.
We stayed in a beautiful Hilton Garden Inn right on the river ... I borrowed this picture from their website because I forgot to take a picture of it.
We had a lovely view of the water. They were having some kind of festival while we were there. We were unable to attend, but it sure looked like alot of fun.
Virginia's state slogan is "Virginia is for lovers" ... so I thought this was a cute slogan for Virginia's aviators.
We arrived late Saturday afternoon and then joined Mike at the Suffolk Executive Airport. The fly-in was pretty much over for the day, but we enjoyed walking around and looking at the airplanes.
Oh ... this is a pretty one ....
Oh ... and this one is pretty too!!
There is a wildfire not too far from the airport ... so the fire fighter's aircraft take off and land from the Suffolk airport. Griffin LOVED seeing the helicopters taking off and landing.
While in Suffolk I had hoped to finally meet my dear blogging friend Wendy ... unfortunately it didn't work out this time ... but I am certainly looking forward to getting together later this summer.
I am sorry you could not get together with Wendy. I am glad you had a great time.
