Mindy and Anne-Julie are strapped in and ready for take-off!In the Happy New Year post, I added a picture with Mindy and I beside a Cesna plane. Well that plane wasn't just for posing beside. It actually belonged to two of Romain's friends from Paris who instead of making the six hour drive like everyone else, decided to fly down from Paris for a quick little visit. Farred and Kef make quite the duo and you have already seen them other pictures as they joined our group and partook in meals and skiing with the rest of us.
Being quite kind and generous, they offered to take all of up on a couple of sight seeing flights over Lac d'Annecy and the surrounding mountains. It was an incredible opportunity and of course we were all for it. And so Mindy and Anne-Julie jumped into the back of the little four-seater and away they went.
The flight was incredible as they had the chance to see the Alps from a new perspective and take some amazing aerial pictures. The pilots of course took the opportunity to joke around about running out of fuel and other inside jokes that don't seem that funny to the passengers, but the girls played along and had fun anyway.
When they returned, the guys decided that lunch was in order before they took Andronik and I up for a flight. Unfortunately when we returned and loaded up the plane, our pilots discovered that the radio was malfunctioning and as a result the plane had to be grounded. And so the girls were the only ones to truly enjoy the experience of flying above the Alps.

Watch out for that mountain ahead.

After a stomach churning flight, Mindy is glad to touchdown safely!
