It was a hang-around-the-house kind of day today. Walked around outside with my lensbaby and came across my son's flying turtle which he had parked on the side of the house. I think he's had this toy since he was about four years old. He used to just glide around on it leisurely, but now he sets up obstacle courses in the driveway and flies through at breakneck speeds. Gotta love a toy that will take a child through that many years of fun.

*For those of you who may not be familiar with how a flying turtle operates...you sit on the seat with your knees bent and your feet resting on the metal bar with hands on the grips. A simple side to side movement of the bars sets the underneath rollers in motion, as long as the surface is flat.

Absolutely love the colors here. It is like the flying turtle is moving at warp speed.

Neat photo, is it a tricycle? I can only see a seat and handlebars so I have no idea if that's what it is.

Nice effect - makes me feel like I'm drunk. I wish I were drunk, actually. Anyway... interesting toy, too.
