I also took my wife flying for the first time yesterday LOL
We took off from Bristol Intl and the wind was pretty vicious over the Mendip hills and the turbulance on takeoff was pretty bad LOL, she was a bit pale and every time the plane bumped, which was every 2 seconds she was grabbing my arm which I had to tell her NOT to do
, once we settled down on our route north over Wotton Under Edge she spotted our house which settled her down a bit, she got the camera out too, I tried to climb out the turbulance and succeeded but only just at 2,600ft, the cloud was at 2,700ft, then when we went over to Lydney to route to Hereford there was even worse turbulance over the hills there LOL, on the way back was smooth down to Chepstow and the view of the severn bridges was quite stunning yesterday, then in via Portishead to Bristol, the landing was good too, and to top it all off......
she said she'd go again
