Our TRip Home

Well on Monday we slept in a bit as the races are now over for another year. (Until Pomona right honey?) Anyway as we booked a late flight for Monday based on past experiences with rain delays in Seattle forcing the race to be run on Monday. And it was close to being run on Monday as well, boy was it close I still can't believe the weather cooperated enough o allow the race to be finished on Sunday even though it was still hampered by a misting rain which cause slight delays during the day. But hats off to the NHRA for getting it done and preparing the track for driver and fan safety.
So the wife and I go do a little shopping, apparently she wants to start running with her so bough me a pair of good running shoes, hi tech stuff this running shoe business. Then we went to Southcentre mall to kill a few more hours.
something to eat and wander around a bit.Well as the day is lagging on we decide to go drop off the rental car and head to the airport where we can get The concourse is pretty cool with a big glass wall that overlooks the airport and can watch all the planes come and go. So this was a good spot to get something to eat. Is awesome to watch all the planes fly in out they are just as powerful as some of the cars we were watching over the weekend and I am always amazed that these planes can ever get off the ground! Like this 747. After we eat we head down to our gate number. you need to take a subway to get out to the satellite terminal that is there but there is another good vantage point for some more pics.
Even The air force comes in here I guess to refuel or something but was still impressed whit this air force tanker as it taxied by us. There was all types of planes that came by us from British Airways to Japanese airplanes and various paint schemes, and we were close to Alaska Airline terminal so there was tons of those plane there to.

Finally our plane lands.....Air Canada/Jazz....and we load up and go home. The flight was about an hour and we are home after another fun weekend in Seattle.
