#6: Take a Helicopter Ride

I went on a helicopter ride on August 1st. Tristan and I went to Boeing Field, and met up with our piolot. I thought there would be more to the whole thing than just getting into the helicopter and taking off, but we got there, and were immediately taken out to our ride and up we went.
I don't know if any of you have ever been in a helicopter, but if you haven't it's one of the weirdest feelings--just lifting up instead of taking off. And, you can fly lower than an air plane can fly, so we can see a whole lot more. We flew over Tristan's house and over the University of Washington. We flew over Bellevue--where I work, and over all the Microsoft Executive's houses with huge pools and even race tracks. It was beautiful. I loved every minute of it.
Here are a few pictures:
