Boeing tour
Not a lot to write about tonight because there are just too many facts for this poor monkey to remember. I took my people on the Boeing factory tour. huge building. The largest in the world, by volume. The entire world of Disneyland, California would fit in it with 12 acres left over for covered parking. We saw a movie at the visitors center and then boarded large buses to go to the actual factory. Again, leave everything in Cmor including the camera. Then downstairs into the tunnels under the buildings for a 1/3 mile walk. The width of the building. Into an elevator that held all 53 of us from the bus and up to the viewing area. After that reverse the trip back to the bus. Then the bus took us to the other end of the building. Same procedure, stairs, tunnel, elevator and jaw dropping info as we watched them build airplanes. Afterwards we went back to the visitors center and got the camera from Cmor. I was invited to sit in the cockpit. Note to Rudi. It wasn't that hard. Just pick out the switches and knobs you like and ignore the rest. Lunch in the parking lot. Knock on the door. More tourist wanting to see Cmor. I am trying to talk my people into charging for tours, we can then buy Cmor's diesel. The tourist were from Eldorado Hills in Cal, but they didn't know the Nemis. Went to Mukilteo to see ferry and lighthouse. On to our final destination, Sumish Indian Reservation to spend night. right on the water at Anacortes. While on the reservation, we made reservations for the ferry. That was a little Monkey humor. Taking my people out of the country tomorrow. hugs from Jr.
