Pima Air and Space Museum

Our next stop was planned mainly for Daniel, but we all really loved our visit to the Pima Air and Space Museum -- one of the largest air and space museums in the world.

We decided to take the docent led tour and ended up staying with him for two full hours! He was a volunteer at the museum and a former Navy pilot in Vietnam and later a pilot for Delta. We saw some fascinating, historic aircraft and learned a great deal about World War II, in particular.





Will channeled his inner Tom Cruise right into the danger zone.

And I was so excited to see a Super Guppy! How cool is this plane!?!? There are only four others in the world -- NASA still uses one and the other three are mothballed.
