I took my first flight when I was 10. Without dating myself, this was back when children would be taken into the cockpit before the flight and could sit in the pilot seat and pretend to fly. If you were really good, you might also get to sit in the cockpit during the flight, which of course I Did !!
I remember it so vividly, everything seemed so huge and the ground so small
The pilot gave me a set of Pilot wings that I still have to this day
Fast forward about 30 years and my husband decides to get his pilot's license. So of course I had to gift those wings to him when we completed that last solo Flight :)
The wings still hang on my bedroom mirror, but now on Hubby's side!

Subject: What's the Best Souvenir You've Ever Received or Gifted?
The new "World Festivals" Trivia Tower is now live and for the three-point bonus question we wanted to ask you this:
"What's the best souvenir you've ever picked up or gifted from your travels and why?"
THESE THREE POINTS MATTER! The last two Trivia Tower winners were determined by who did and did not answer this bonus question, so don't give up now! Give us your response in the comments below.
I'll start with my answer to this question. Every time my family travels, we pick up the ugliest/tackiest magnet we can find to pop on the fridge to remind us of where we've been. So my favorite magnet that I've found is this really cheesy magnet from Wisconsin (of all places) that I got from a roadside cheese attraction called "Mars Cheese Castle." The reason I love this magnet is because it shows a castle, and then has the planet Saturn in the corner (with its rings) even though it's MARS Cheese Castle. I asked the salesperson why they didn't just put Mars on there instead, and she said the owner thought that people wouldn't know that the circle was a planet. Talk about not understanding your audience's intelligence. Anyhow, I HAD to have it and so many people look at it and say, "That's Saturn, not Mars..." and I chuckle every time.
Now I'd love for you to share your answer to this question with me and good luck playing in the World Festivals Trivia Tower. I can't wait to announce the winner next week!
