We made it Sparta, Tennessee! We could have made it to Jackinsonville, Illinois but then we would have been exhuasted. The pool has already cooled us off and we are now waiting for some pizza!

Currently, Kali is getting a weather breifing for tomorrow. We are hoping for tailwinds...we still have yet to find a good tailwind...


Both Kali and I are having a complete blast! Everytime we get in the airplane we are like, "I can't believe we are doing this!!!" We are loving it. This truly is an amazing race, the expeirence has been invaluable. It has been such a confidence builder, actually getting out in the real world and flying, and with lots of racers right beside us (or under, or above!) This really is quite a treat to compete in something like this!


Here are some pictures that were taken before we took off from Centennial:
