Take off and climb, climb, climb! Keep it as high as you can that is reasonably visible without becoming a dot. Throttle back and enjoy the flight. When comfortable flying level, start doing approaches and flybys....each time lower until you are about 5 feet of the ground. Take a deep breath, let it settle about a foot of the ground, flare and hope everything went well....good luck on that landing!
Make sure you have a big fuel tank and that your engine won't quit. Once that happens, landing is no longer an option. Best of luck and be safe.
