My grandfather moved with all his kids and my mom never went to South Africa because he wanted to use it as a base of exploration探险. So he had this little plane that he liked to fly all over the place and he flew it all through Africa and Asia. And he was the first person to fly from South Africa to Australia. And he did this in a plane with no electronic instruments. And in some places they had diesel柴油机 and some places they had gasoline and he had to rebuild重建 the engine according to whatever fuel they had.
So it's lucky he survived on that one. But he was sort of an amateur业余的 archaeologist考古学家. He liked to explore探险 things. I think that a future where we are a spacefaring civilization文明 and out there among the stars, this is very exciting. This makes me look forward to the future. This makes me want that future. You know, there are things, there need to be things that make you look forward to waking up in the morning.
