✈️✈️✈️2007~ Tuesday, May 1, Trip to Shriners Hospital in Lexington, KY


We left the Muscle Shoals airport at 7:45 A.M. 
This is our second trip to the Shiners Hospital in Lexington, Kentucky.

I brought my camera this time so I could take pictures. 
Inside the airplane, I took several pictures of my granddaughter she was laughing and enjoying the plane ride.


My daughter and I had to wear large headphones so we could talk to the pilot.
So we took pictures of each other wearing the headphones.


We flew low enough for me to take some awesome pictures of the ground below. 
I took several pictures of a boat chugging along the Tennessee River toward locks at Wilson Dam.
I took pictures of the Marriott Hotel and The Renaissance Tower standing behind it. 
For miles, I could see green trees, buildings with smoke coming out of the top, a white water tower, and I could see the flowing of the Tennessee River.



Then we flew over the Robert Trent Jones Golf Course, what a view it looked like a video game with all the crooked paths, sandpits, and clubhouse. 


We left the Tennessee Valley flying through Tennessee and Kentucky all the while I was taking pictures of all the lush greenery, different land shapes, hills and valleys, busy streets, houses, factories, and swimming pools. 

Kentucky was a totally different view with the brilliant glow of the Kentucky Blue Grass, acres and acres of horse tracks, green rooftop barns, a lush green field filled with Kentucky racing horses, and miles of white fencing. 



Our pilot gave my granddaughter a TEC Air lanyard, neck strap, which we put around her neck. 

We safely landed at the Kentucky Air Field at 9:30 A.M. Standing next to the building were rows of horse jockey statues.

When we arrived our pilot went inside to get a van to take us to Shriners Hospital for my granddaughter's appointment.

After we checked in, my granddaughter was weighed, her head and length were measured and she was taken to the Penguin examination room. 
In the examination room was a mural on the wall behind the table where my granddaughter sat, was a white and red owl, holding a red balloon, a black walrus with a white tusk, wearing red earmuffs, three black and white penguins, with orange beaks, wearing hats of red, green and yellow, all standing in the snow.


Doctor DB examined my granddaughter's bones. 
My daughter talked to BP about Botox and she told my daughter that Botox was a protein made of bacteria.
My daughter told the doctors that she wanted to take my granddaughter to Baltimore, Maryland for therapy.
They gave us a lunch voucher and we walked to the cafeteria where we ate pinto beans, cornbread, broccoli, salmon patties, watermelon, and brownies.
The food that I ate did not agree with my stomach and the tea we drank was instant not brewed. 

Our pilot came to pick us up at 1:50 P.M. 
Our flight home was very bumpy and our pilot said when hot air rises it causes the plane to bounce up and down. 
My daughter had not flown many times and this flight was a little upsetting to her. 
We arrived safely at the Muscle Shoals Airport.
