Mausumi, from Flagstaff Arizona writes:
Mrs. Bush, thank you for the opportunity to ask you my question. I would like to know how you pass the time while on long flights aboard Air Force One. Thank you.
Laura Bush:
Good question, Mausumi! On flights, I catch up with my staff, review schedules, and read briefing papers for the trip. It’s fun to travel with the President, and I always enjoy spending time with him. I always have a good book nearby. And of course, on overnight flights, I sleep.
