Yesterday we saw the 2 part series documentary Kitty Hawk: The Wright Brothers journey of invention . We thought it was a gripping documentary, definitely worth watching. I especially like the detail of Neil Armstrong and John Glenn lending their voices to impersonate the Wright Brothers . I thought it was a very nice touch. The great astronaut pioneers lending their voices to the great fathers of modern aviation. It was also moving to see the Kitty Hawk dunes (or better, the Kill Devil Hill dunes as Kitty Hawk is the name of the village nearby)again. We especially drove out of out route to the Outer banks in our trip from Washington DC to Florida last December. It was worth it, for stepping in the place where mankind took the first successful flight in 17th December 1903. Since that day we have not stopped flying. We have reached the stars and we will keep on going. Maybe one day we will come back from far away and visit planet Earth just as I visited Kitty Hawk last year, as an historic place to be remembered.
