Sun 'N' Fun

Yesterday it was a very interesting and cool day. In the morning we headed to the College as everyday to attend our classes, which are reaching its end as today it's our last day here in Polk State College.

After them we had lunch at Subway and then we went to Lakeland to pick up Teresa, who was going to take us to Sun 'N' Fun, an air and space museum with a lot of cool, educational and interesting things.

Once we arrived, we were taken into the museum, where we were able to see some aircraft that had been part of the US Air History and play some games related to aviation, such as flight simulators or different tests that the pilots have to pass before getting into a plane. 

Then we went outdoors, where our guide Robb took us to an hangar where some of the students of different high schools gather around to create their own airplanes and drones. We also had the chance to go into and empty plane that they're turning into a classroom, so the future students will be able to attend flight lessons in an actual airplane. 



Finally, and as part of the tour, our guide gave us a gift... A book about aviation and some of the army planes that are part of the exhibit in Sun 'N' Fun. We want to thank them a lot because that was a GREAT present!!!!
