The captions say that Jeanne and Alan Hall "comfort" their daughter after her flight--as if it were a difficult experience. She looks like she had a great time to me. Try "congratulate."

I have seen people pass out and get sick on those incentive rides. But if you like the thrill of speed, it's great.

Way to go Mrs. Funk. Sounds like you are very deserving of this once in a lifetime opportunity.

All I can say is I am soooooo jealous - what a dream day you must have had - who cares about your breakfast - you will talk about this 4 ever!

I can't think of anyone more deserving. She is my Grandaughters school teacher and our Morgan LOVES her. Morgan is so proud of you and was so excited to Live United this year. Way to go Mrs.Funk!!!!
