Boarding in Toronto

Just about to board our flight to Bogota.

In Toronto

We'll we have survived leg one of three.

First the lady at the Air Canada ticket desk was not going to allow the model box onto the plane. Saying it was too big, about a half hour later of me explaining the rules to her she allowed us to go.

Then at security the guy actually knew what a lipo battery was. I was shocked, I have never had someone at security know what a transmitter and lipo is. Well some smooth talking on my part got us through that. There was a good chance he was not going to let the batteries on board.

To top it all off I came down with some flu yesterday. So I am keeping myself nicely medicated!

Last flight before Columbia

Here is a shot at sunset just before my last flight today, which is last practice I will get before we leave on Saturday.

Winter time is on us here as well so it is probably the last flight of this year in Calgary as well.

I will do my best to keep some blogging going well down in Columbia so stay tuned!
