Day 6: Buffer Day

We were happy to let the kids sleep in Thursday morning.  After breakfast they spent some time in the pool (we had it all to ourselves).  Then we hung out in our room doing nothing, and it felt good.  We ate at Popeye's for lunch, then went to the Air Force Academy.  This one of my favorite stops of the trip.

 The Air Force Academy Chapel.  This place was cool.

 Inside the Protestant Chapel

 This is what I call a pipe organ!

 Awesome and powerful sight to see the freshman students in formation.

 The kids were impressed, too

 Inside the Catholic chapel

 There were falcons on display in the Visitor's Center.  The 2 kids with them are sophomore students in the Academy

 Don and I are considering these requirements for the kids' rooms

After the Air Force Academy, we went back to our hotel to swim and chill out some more.  We walked across the street for supper at Old Chicago.  Yummy Yummy.
