Today we flew from Dallas, Texas to State College, Pennsylvania with a layover in Washington DC. At the airport, the boys observed the following vehicles: baggage truck, food truck, fuel truck, de-icer truck, fire engine, security vehicle, shuttle bus, propeller plane, and jet plane. They also learned about airport security and airplane boarding procedures.
Ian enjoyed looking out the window of the plane and identifying things from above. Arriving by plane was a great way to see the unique ridge and valley topography of central Pennsylvania.
