Perspective is everything! Everything looks so different from the air. As we flew over the lakes and buildings of Seattle, I was mesmerized. Our pilot, Scott, was very congenial and wanted to make sure we had a wonderful flight. Consequently, he offered to split our group of 5 passengers into two flights so every one could have a really great view. We happily accepted his offer, and off we went. The flights included headphones and microphones so we could all hear Scott's narration of the sights and ask questions as well. The system works well. Taking off from the water and landing on the water was smoother than I expected. Good fun!
