2010 Offutt Air Show

What we learned at the air show....
  • Bring camping chairs or at least a blanket to sit on...perhaps it isn't worth it to go until we are stroller-less because that is a lot of cargo to haul around.
  • Remember sun-screen, water bottles, cash or be prepared to get some sun, be thirsty or stand in a very long ATM line. Don't worry, the kids were set but Landon and I, not so much.
  • The shuttle ride to and from the air show was better then the actual air show for Kinnie.
  • When we fly home for Christmas we need to be prepared for Kinnie who may be terrified to get on the airplane. She was nervous to walk through the airplanes on display because she thought they were going to go into the sky.
  • All of the really cool airplanes fly in the afternoon. We dealt with smaller crowds and didn't have to wait for a shuttle for an hour but we missed the Thunderbirds and the other fast airplanes.
  • It was free, it was entertaining, I think we would do it again.

Thanks for the tips! We have an airshow coming here in a few weeks and would have been unprepared! I'm glad to see you're getting out so much and having so much fun!

Looks fun!
Sorry about the heat and lack of water! Don't you hate that?! I feel like I always prepare so much for Owen and then leave myself hangin.

She BETTER get on that plane at Christmas time! :)
