Jock's TravelBlog Because sometimes I go places

Somewhere over India(?), London to Delhi

It is long past the strangely written romantic commedy/drama thingy., and the American movie that played after that, and the random music videos. The vast majority of the passengers I can see are asleep, and up until a moment ago I was as well. Then some switch turned on and I bolted awake. Unlike the other times, no one had bothered to close the window shades. On my side of the plane I watched the ghostly white wisps of cloud whip by, regularly illuminated by the light from the plane. It was an eerily beautiful site. Then I turned to look out the windows on the opposite side, and saw light. Lots of light. A city.

The trip status isn't showing on the monitor. So I am working from memory. We passed over Russia, then Kazakhstan, then Afghanistan, and then into India. Based on the time before we land, I think we are now over India. That thought made my heart race. There is still a quarter of a day to go on this trip before we land for the last time, but I am in some sense already here. Its a milestone. Not that I did any of the work...
