Good morning blog friends, and welcome to post number 400 on the Kampblog!!! Not only is this an exciting post because of the post number, but it’s also the first post regarding my flight training.
Below is a picture from a very cool experience earlier this week! A couple good friends of ours fly for an airline here in the city, and brought us in to try out their uber cool, uber expensive flight simulator!! That’s my “oh man I’m so freakin’ excited, I’m flying a real freakin’ flight simulator” face lol.
As some people have seen on
facebook,
twitter, or by just talking to me, I’m in the process of just starting my flight training up in St. Andrews with
Harv’s Air. I’ve loved airplanes and flying since for as long as I can remember… believe me my family can testify to that fact. In fact pretty much all of the sheets I filled out as a child regarding a future career aspirations were flying and being a pilot… well being a ninja might have slipped in a few times.
Getting my pilots license has been something that I talk about about every year, but never do. Over the past couple months in our slower season, it occurred to me that at the rate I was going, it would probably be something that I never finished, something I always plan to do, but put off because of procrastination, or I’m not even sure quite why…
Today is my first official flight lesson. The first day towards accomplishing something that has been in my mind for as many years as I can remember. I’ve been up since 7am today finishing up some required reading, I’ve been listening to a live tower feed of CYAV (St Andrews Airport) and nothing can really explain that extremely excited but nervous feeling. I’m going to try to take some pictures during each lesson (nothing to fancy, just our point and shoot) and will be posting those and just some “this is what happened” as my training continues! I can’t believe the day is here =)
See you all in the wild blue yonder ;-)

I am so pumped for you and think it’s incredible when people force themselves to put aside the time to accomplish something they’ve dreamed of doing! Good on ya! (p.s. Iintend to never get in a plane with you)
I am SO-SO-SO proud of you and so thrilled to see you so happy accomplishing a dream!
A couple of days after the wedding, we hit the road for a little back country Cuban adventure! We booked a tour which included a Jeep ride through the middle of nowhere, a little bit of driving through the city of Matanzas, an incredible lunch break, a boat ride down a beautiful river (it totally looked like Jurassic Park!) and finally a drive back to the starting point.
It was definitely an awesome adventure, and a great way to see more of the countryside. You also see at one point I (Jake) get somehow pulled into a “sacrificial dance party” at one of our stops lol… yes everyone was topless… after that we hit the road for an absolutely beautiful fresh water swim in a giant cave! Again this trip was totally awesome!
This is the last post from our Cuban adventure… It was an absolutely awesome trip, and we can’t thank Caroline and Ryan enough for letting us join you and all of your friends and family =)
We’ll have more adventure for all of our awesome blog readers coming soon, this coming Thursday I’m off to my first flight training class so hopefully I’ll be able to sneak a few photos in there, and then we’re off to Mexico in just over a week so stay tuned =)
Thanks for reading and sharing with us =)

After a few days of cooler cloudy weather, Caroline and Ryan’s wedding day rolled around. We woke up to a sunny blue sky, and the air was a lot warmer then it had been during the trip. With such nice weather for the wedding day, all of the 72 people down for the wedding, were in great spirits!
Jess spent the morning with the girls at the hair salon, and with the girls getting ready, while I spent some time taking some shots of the guys. We then met for the ceremony at 3pm. It was such an incredible experience photographing a destination wedding with so many guests as most are much smaller. All of the love from the family and friends could be felt all day.
This is part one of the wedding day post, the next post will include the couple and wedding party photo session.
More to come =) Enjoy!
