The Clouds are Beautiful

I never thought I'd get tired of looking out the window when flying in an airplane. I thought I'd just sit at the window and watch the whole time no matter how long the flight was.

It's beautiful, but they don't hold my attention for so long any more. I'm not sure why. Because they aren't so mysterious any more? Because I know it's just water vapor (or something like that?)? Because I've got other boring things on my mind.

I thought I'd always been all about the window seat, now I'm all about the aisle so I can get up and wander and stretch when I want.

Instead of watching, I'm just reading and writing and watching movies. I'm not sure why on some lever I'm considering that to be a bad thing?

But here I am typing away instead of watching..

(As I look at what I just wrote, I think maybe I've written something similar in the past on a different trip. Maybe not, maybe I just thought about writing it. For obvious reasons I can't look right now.)

Unknown Photo from 30,000 Feet

I thought this was really interesting looking but I don't know where it actually is. Does anyone have an idea? And I thought the photo came out pretty good too!



It's along the path from Charlotte, NC, USA to San Jose, Costa Rica. It's about 2 hours from landing time and at 500 miles/hour, and factoring in landing and disembarkation, I'm guessing it's about 700-800 miles north(ish) from San Jose.
