787 Rollout


Still a bit tired from the Enchantments hike, we opted for a less action packed afternoon at Qwest field. Getting a bit carried away, Boeing insisted the 787 be officially revealed to the public on 07-08-07. The trains were running free for Boeing employees, so we followed the herd onto the cattle cars, er...the Sounder...at Kent Station. After standing in line we got water and feed (787 Aquafina bottles and popcorn) then watched a very sarcastic broadcast of the 787 roll-out ceremony. The live event took place in Everett, but only certain employees were invited. The most memorable part of the day was the...colorful...woman we sat next to, who read our paws and left (after 2+ hours of waiting) about ten minutes before they finally rolled out the aircraft.
