Download or read book Aventura Alaska Brasil written by William Carroll and published by Coda Publications. This book was released on 2003-03 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bill and Renee Carroll's "Aventura Alaska Brasil" proved to be a lifetime's journey of pleasure, disappointment and achievement. For an unprecedented 24/7 durability test, their car's engine was started in Anchorage, Alaska and ran almost continuously for 125 days and nights. At the same time they drove the brand-new Mercury coupe 24,876 miles south to Brazil's Rio de Janeiro. A highlight was transiting the Panama Canal and three days of cruising the Caribbean Sea because there was no other way to travel from Panama to South America. Overnights ranged from tiny hostels welcoming every traveler with old-world courtesy to magnificent chain edifices that routinely failed to know of verified room reservations. The variety of food included chocolate-coated ants in Columbia and gourmet dinners in Venezuela. Gasoline was usually available except when a town had none, or the only pump was on the far side of a barbed wire fence. Multi-lane pavement soon became a desired treat, cobblestones rustic backbreakers, landslides in Costa Rica a dangerous hurdle and road rocks in Ecuador ripped a hole in the gasoline tank. Later, between Chile and Argentina, their route involved following rails and bouncing over ties through a railroad's "Tunel Internacional" deep in the Andes. Press conferences arranged by "Aventura" sponsors Ford Motor Company, Morton International, STP and Firestone Tire and Rubber were great fun. Most difficult was entering Brasil, where a senior Customs Inspector thought the Mercury's documents were forged, and restrained the Carrolls in his tiny border town for days. All, and more, is part of this exciting "Aventura Alaska Brasil."

Eles tinham um fiel companheiro de quatro patas, o Max, um labrador cheio de energia. O motorhome, apelidado de Casa Sobre Rodas , estava equipado com tudo o que precisavam para a jornada: uma cozinha compacta, uma cama confortável e um pequeno banheiro. Eles haviam planejado meticulosamente a rota, estudando cada parada ao longo do caminho. A primeira parte da viagem os levou pelo Brasil, explorando as praias do Nordeste e as paisagens deslumbrantes do Pantanal. Eles conheceram pessoas incríveis e provaram pratos típicos em cada parada. Max estava sempre animado para correr pelas praias e explorar novos lugares. Ao cruzar a fronteira com a Argentina, enfrentaram desafios linguísticos e burocráticos, mas a amizade de Cláudia e Rafael e a curiosidade em explorar novas culturas os mantiveram motivados. Passaram pelo Chile, onde ficaram maravilhados com a beleza dos Andes, e seguiram pela América Central, explorando as ruínas maias e as praias de águas cristalinas. No México, fizeram uma pausa para trabalhar remotamente e economizar para a próxima etapa da viagem. Max adorava as praias mexicanas e as longas caminhadas sob o sol. A jornada continuou pelos Estados Unidos, com paradas em cidades icônicas como Las Vegas e Nova York. Em cada local, encontraram desafios e alegrias, mas sempre estavam juntos, fortalecendo seu relacionamento. Finalmente, depois de anos na estrada, chegaram ao Alasca. O cenário selvagem e majestoso os deixou sem fala. Era o objetivo alcançado, mas também o início de uma nova aventura. Eles se estabeleceram temporariamente no Alasca, explorando suas trilhas e geleiras, enquanto planejavam a próxima grande jornada. Essa história realista mostra a determinação de um casal brasileiro, acompanhado por seu adorável cachorro, enquanto exploram todo o continente americano, enfrentando desafios, vivendo experiências incríveis e fortalecendo os laços que os unem. A viagem de motorhome tornou-se uma jornada inesquecível, cheia de aprendizados e memórias que levariam para o resto de suas vidas.

Download or read book Nerves of Steel written by Captain Tammie Jo Shults and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nerves of Steel is the captivating true story of Tammie Jo Shults’s remarkable life—from growing up the daughter of a humble rancher, to breaking through gender barriers as one of the Navy’s first female F/A-18 Hornet pilots, to safely landing the severely crippled Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 and helping save the lives of 148 people. Tammie Jo Shults has spent her entire life loving the skies. Though the odds were against her, she became one of the few female fighter pilots in the Navy. In 1994, after serving her country honorably for eight years, Tammie Jo left the Navy and joined Southwest Airlines in the early 1990’s. On April 17, 2018, Tammie Jo was called to service once again. Twenty minutes into a routine domestic flight, Captain Shults was faced with the unthinkable—a catastrophic engine failure in the Boeing 737 caused an explosion that severed hydraulic and fuel lines, tearing away sections of the plane, puncturing a window, and taking a woman’s life. Captain Shults and her first officer, Darren Ellisor, struggled to stabilize the aircraft. Drawing deeply from her well of experience, Tammie Jo was able to wrestle the severely damaged 737 safely to the ground. Not originally scheduled for that flight, there is no doubt God had prepared her and placed her right where she needed to be that day.
