Air Show- A Boys Dream!

Waterkloof Air Base, which is down the hill from our house here put on an amazing Air Show!  Charlie and I got to go twice, we volunteered to help build model airplanes with students on Weds, then we went back on Saturday with everyone and met up with another family there.

It was everything a five year old boy could want... a real Transformer, planes, helicopters, tanks, machine guns that they let you practice firing....

Charlie loved this gun, you could swivel it in circles and move the barrel up & down. Anything better for a 5 year old boy?

They brought out at C-17 and C-130 from New York, out friend Eric got us into the cockpit, here is the pilot!  The US Army Golden Knights also did the parachute jumps, very cool! The first day Charlie and I saw them go right over our car.

Heading into the C-17-long line around back that we got to skip!

A great day was had by all! Quite an impressive air show!
