THE NEXT BEST THING TO TELEPORTING

What she really wanted to do was teleport. She settled for the next best thing.
Every so often a guest blogger bails, usually for a legitimate reason. Life gets in the way, and that’s understandable. Such was the case with today’s scheduled guest. So I turned to my author. I figure, given all the dead bodies Lois Winston throws in my path, the least she can do is take over occasionally when I have a blog hole to fill. Right?

As luck would have it, Lois and her husband recently returned from a cruise up to New England and Canada, and Lois was able to fulfill a lifelong dream. No, she didn’t teleport (after all, the signs on the ship forbade it), but she did get to do the next best thing. She got to fly.
Lois Winston flying like Superman. 
The ship they were on featured iFly, which is billed as indoor skydiving, but according to Lois, really isn’t. You don’t jump and plummet several thousand feet. Instead, you soar on a cushion of controlled air. According to Lois, it really does feel like you’re flying.

Lois said the experience was totally amazing. The one downside? It only lasted a little more than a minute before it was the next person’s turn to fly.

Now I'm wondering if she's going to have me flying in my next adventure--or perhaps teleporting? You never know what trouble she'll get me into.
