The Beauty of Flying


Going up, up and above the clouds somehow gives a euphoric feeling.

In the same way as when I am on a long distance bus travel, the longer the flight means a longer chance to sit and introspect. These are the moments when I truly appreciate the beauty of flying and traveling in general.

And of course you get to see the literal beauty up there as the wings of the aircraft slice through the fluffy white clouds in the bright blue sky. The red-orange rays of the sun give an added life to the flight and surely a great view for the shutter-bugs on board. No matter how many sunrises and sunsets I have seen, I still feel in awe.

Oh yes, I am going home and spending the holiday with the family. Happy new year!
