My Trip Report (Part 1) Warning 56k users

Finally I'm going to start this trip report. Yesterday I've been uploading the images to Photobucket and I found out that they are 54 images. I deleted some of them since they are too dark or blurry. Now I have 48 images and I'm going to divide this trip report into 3 parts with 16 images for each part. There are appoximately 3 blurry images that I took without flash, so sorry about that.

1. Monitors showing departure and arrival flights.

After a few minutes we boarded the B757-200. I've got a window seat, but didn't take any pictures because it was too dark.
This picture was taken when we arrived to Madrid and I was standing on the bus.

This was a great flight. This time I didn't have a window seat because they were all taken by other passengers. None of my family had a window seat. My dad was seated next to a woman who had a window seat, though.
Not having a window seat I couldn't take any pictures of the flight.
The seats were very confortable and we had a monitor that showed us the aircraft from the outside. That was really cool. I watched the takeoff through that monitor.
Flight Attendants were in a good mood. Some of them weren't.

Well, we arrived at Buenos Aires. The flight was so smooth. Landing was perfect. Some argentinian guys were wondering why the aircraft took so long to take off and land 😂 Being a big aircraft fully loaded it takes time to reach VR speed and rotate the aircraft.

On December 15, 2005 my mom and dad went to Brazil. My dad had to work there and my mom went with him just to have fun and talk to her Brazilian friends. She took some pictures for me so here they are:

3. Boeing 737-400 waiting for the passengers to board the plane.

4. Another Boeing 737-400 I believe.

5. An Air France Boeing 747-400.

Probably these pictures were all taken at the Ezeiza Airport or maybe at the Guarulhos Airport, Rio de Janeiro. Or maybe São Paulo, which was the final destination of my mom and dad.

6. A Varig MD-11 taxiing.

7. Another MD-11 parked at the gate.

8. The Ground staff arrived to serve this aircraft.

9. The tail of the MD-11

10. A Boeing 737-400

My mom took some more pictures but I will not post all of them. Some of them look the same.

Our stay in Argentina was so great. We went to our beautiful house there.

11. Our house in a sunny day.
