Visiting Museum of Aviation in Warner Robins, Georgia with Dad

On Tuesday afternoon, November 27 of 1990, we went with Dad to Warner Robins Airforce Museum.
As you clearly can see, we had a lovely, sunny day on November 27!
Dad loved reading all the information about the exhibited planes.
This Aviation Museum has been open to the public since 1984.
Next month The Museum of Aviation 35th Anniversary Celebration  (click on link).
Both, Pieter and I have been to the Museum of Aviation numerous times with our guests but it remains a very interesting place to go to!
It looks like Dad is shooting me in this picture...
Dad recognized several planes that he knew from WWII
Photo opportunity enough!
Dad really had a ball!

Dad Visiting Chappell Grist Mill Dublin Georgia

On Sunday, November 26 of 1990, we did visit with Dad the old grist mill; Chappell's Mill which is rather close to our home.

Dad did tag along on November 11, 1990 for helping us move into our new home

On Saturday evening, November 3 of 1990, we flew from Jakarta, Indonesia on KLM Royal Dutch Airlines flight 838 to Amsterdam, The Netherlands via Singapore and Delhi. Our month off from consulting work and our life in Indonesia.
This time it was very special, as we would move into our new HOME.
Dad had offered to tag along, for helping us!
So when we were in Amsterdam at Schiphol airport on November 4, we got the tickets for Dad at fl 1.739.00 cash, before Dad and our sister-in-law Bets met us at the airport.
Seeing our friend on his birthday that very day...
On Tuesday, November 6, we got up at 4:00 and by 5:30 we started our drive towards the Brenner Pass to Italy... From The Netherlands, through Germany, Austria into Italy with Dad's Ford Fiesta.
We even did meet on Thursday, November 8, Pieter's dear friend Harry Hollander at the very same hotel we were staying, with his wife and business associates!
Friday, November 9, we drive in 13 hours (taking turns!) back to The Netherlands...
What a schedule we lived by then!

My brother Harry in his new Citroen BX had brought us to the airport on November 11, without Mom... she could not join us, as Harry had his little 3-year old son Johnny with him. Mom was sad!
Via Bergen op Zoom and Vlissingen, Harry's 'scenic' route to Schiphol airport we arrived there.
Flying once more on a KLM Royal Airlines Boeing 747 and we got all seated together in economy class. This was Dad's 2nd flight to Atlanta, USA, from The Netherlands.
We arrived in Dublin, Georgia by 9:00 PM and first we all went to see our NEW HOME!
Then we went to dear friends Somai (born in Thailand) and Bob where we would stay for 5 nights, till we unpacked ALL 110 boxes and transferred our container load of furniture.
Billy Brown had our goods transported on his truck and with the help of three extremely strong black guys it got delivered.
We ALL worked hard.
