Hawaii Trip: First Plane Ride

First Plane Trip
Lucy had her first plane trip yesterday, a 5+ hour flight (plus a connection!) and she came through with flying colors. I made a quick collage of pics (above) of this historic occasion. In the bottom right pic you can see Lucy’s “brave face”. She’d sport this look and clasp her hands together whenever the plane ride got a little bumpy. She’s a brave little trooper, that kid.

We’re about to hit the road and get caught up with her Gpa Peter, Auntie Laura, and Uncle John, so I’ll cut this post short for now. More pics and posts to come from the big island of Hawai`i.

Here are a few pics Auntie Laura snapped of Lucy and Izzy B, one of Laura’s cats…

I like how the accuser has frosting on her chin in this scene.

As you can see, Lucy likes getting up close and personal w/ her fuzzy friends. Luckily, said friends are usually pretty patient with her.

Monterey Bay Aquarium

We went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium last Saturday w/ friends and family. Lucy was very excited. She saw snakes, sharks, otters (which look like slimmed down, wet Wuberts), penguins (her current obsession), and a fish that I bet was way into D&D back in school.

Wouldn’t ya know it, w/ all the cool (and dorky) animals swimming and splashing around that place, the kid’s favorite animals of the day were the pigeons? (My fave was the goofy guy.)

More pics available here. Pics from Auntie Laura are here.
