Souvenirs of a long weekend 1
Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 7:12 pmHave been doing a lot of mping this long weekend..... 
Here are a few snaps...
With Ecko, Chomp Rock and Black Panther, we set off from Toronto city centre to fly to Niagara...
Unfortunately, I had to pick up my wife from the bus stop, at 10.30pm, couldn't find the mobile phone charger, switched off the phone intending to turn on at 10:00... and forgot...
...realised about 10:20, switched on, it immediately peeped the message "there in 10 minutes" causing me to run for my trainers and out into the night, leaving the aircraft to its fate....
standing by the bus stop in the snow, only -6 though, mild night, I realised I was wearing only my pyjamas and a jumper...
...and my wife took about 7 LONG minutes to arrive, so she must have just sent the message....lol
...when I got back the guys were already at niagara, so I joined them and we flew around Niagara for a bit, Chomp and Panther swapping life stories...
Later, Ecko came back for more and we flew from Mauritius to La Reunion...in C172s.... my idea
His formation skills were quite amazing, I can't even keep in line with my wife in the street...here I was gaping in wonder from the window.
After a while of wondering where La Reunion was I took another look at my atlas, this time focussing on the SCALE and decided it might be prudent to switch to jet propulsion.
Ecko was pretty good at 'forming' in the galeb, too...
Posing after a long flight...
Alone after Ecko left, snapped this quite nice one.
Monday night I was out with Spyro, Clipper, Snio, Tinmanjnr over the Alps and later Egypt. Took the Wilga up...
Switched to this new repaint... As in real life, the pyramids in my sim are in a suburb of Cairo... not sure if this leafy, though....GW + Egypt landclass....
The sphinx was hard to find, hiding as she was in some bushes.
More to come....nicer ones too...
Thanks for looking in!
