I recently took an audit of the number of flights that my family has taken… we are averaging 20 flights per person per year. If I estimate 3 hours per flight and multiple that number by my age I’m now a quarter of the way to expert based on the …
Done that… I am fairly certain that this monument needs no introduction. Happy to report that it much improved, and therefore far more impressive, than my last visit 26 years ago. Also, my mom was right, it was cold. We came early (6:30am) and the boys were underdressed for the …
