We headed to the airport a little early so that we could watch some of the planes land.
Our vantage point from the top of the van, on top of the parking garage, gave us a great view of the whole runway. Lousy photomerge below (I could not get the seams to work correctly.)
The car off to the right of us had about five guys standing around. One old codger in a wheelchair even (not standing so much.) The all had giant spotting scopes and cameras with huge telephoto lenses. A plane would land, they would all discuss it, and then write it down in what appeared to be a log book. They appear to have been up there a while, since they were all red as lobsters. I have no idea what they were doing, but at $4 an hour for the parking garage, they must really be into it.
We even managed to see Mom's exact plane come in for a landing.
The kids were thrilled to see her in the terminal. They all ran up to her screaming, which managed to scare Luke so badly that he burst into loud wails. Whoops...
