The airplanes race over 1.7 to 3 mile courses (depending on the class of airplane) and fly 50 - 200 feet off the ground - even the 500mph jets!<br />

I decided to get into Reno tonight so I can go to Lake Tahoe tomorrow! <br /><br /> I stopped to take pictures of Mt. Shasta which was pretty cool - other than that all I did was drive all day (after oil change for the car) It was a very smooth trip - Left Des Moines at 9AM and got to Reno at 11:30PM - a little late for camping so I will camp on the return trip.<br /><br />I'll post more tomorrow - maybe some pics of Mt.

Wieliczka Salt Mine<br />
<br />
Near Krakow Poland. Salt was carved by the miners into statues.<br />
Tours go down to 135 meters where there is a cathedral, wellness cventer, and meeting room (wi-fi equipped)<br />
<br />
The floor tiles and chandeliers are also made out of (compressed) salt by the miners who carved the rooms and figures. The stairs are also made from salt<br />

The lights to the left are Aqaba, Jordan and the lights to the far right are in Saudi Arabia (the middle ones are close to the Jordan / Saudi Arabia border and I do not know which country they are in) The Egypt border is just a few miles to the south and spreads along the western border of Israel.<br />
<br />
The airport in Eilat would NEVER be FAA approved. Because of the close proximity of the borders and because the airport and end of the runway is situated just a few yards (literally) from this beach, the airplanes are actually beginning their flare just to the west of this beach (and over the shopping centers and some of the hotels) I tried to get pics but at that low altitude, they are landing before you realize they were even there.<br />

I had thought against going to the Shonbrunn castle because I was tired, mind overloaded, although I am SO glad I did. What made up my mind is because they had giant pandas at the Royal Zoo (at the Shonbrunn castle) and I wanted to see one in real life (only one can be viewed now - the mother and baby are not available to public yet) Even though I only got a couple of glimpses of one of the pandas, it was worth the trip (besides viewing the lovely castle and grounds)<br />
