Dagje wel
... de landing kregen we boven Ierland een Amerikaans ontbijt op de plank; een muffin, banaan en een diet Minute Maid. Co had het gepresteerd om de snelste tijd op de klok te zetten, maar we waren toch 2 uur te laat en driekwart van de aanwezigen mochten er als eerste uit om de balie te zoeken voor een nieuwe vlucht.

We visited the chapel (first time I see a heated chapel, gosh, these people have good sponsors!), drove all trough the academy, I cannot believe it, they have their own tour bus!
