On my way back from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, instead of driving back to New Brunswick I was picked up in single engine Cessna. Flying to New Brunswick in a 4-seater was much quicker than driving the 6 plus hours from Cape Breton. Conveniently, my boyfriend is a pilot so we arranged for my personal pick up in Nova Scotia. Anytime I have the opportunity to fly, regardless of the size of the aircraft, I take it. I’ve always loved flying, but I am even more passionate about flying now that I am dating a pilot. I have taken 15 flights since the beginning of July. Most on commercial flights, a handful in a 2-seater Diamond Aircraft and another in a 4-seater Cessna. Now that I have begun my 12 months off from work I can’t even imagine how many flights I will be taking throughout my travels. I’ll be keeping track because I am curious to see how many the year will incur.
Your boyfriend is a pilot?! How did you too meet?
Yes, indeed he is! Exciting isn’t it? We met at a local restaurant with the best wood-fired pizza in town (not to mention their blueberry beer)! We can’t stay away from that place!
What a cool story! The place sounds Belgian with its flavored beer… 😛
Awesome! I love sweet beer! What’s your favorite flavored ale?
Sorry, I do not like alcohol…
I bet the chocolate is your favorite!
Very cool.
I thought so! Have you been in a small airplane before?
Unfortunately not yet, but I am sure planning on it.
If you ever get the chance you should try it! Do you like flying?
Flying yes, but airports have become a complete hassle.
I know what you mean! When you fly in a private plane there is less inconvienience.
What exciting must be dating a pilot! : ) I mean while other guys would pick you up in a car or a motorcycle, yours pick you up in a plane! That’s really cool!
haha, I have never thought about that way! It is really cool (and a neat way of thinking about it). I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!
