Right, at the moment I am in a plane with a window seat just behind the wing. It’s def my favourite place to sit in a plane without a doubt =)
I love flying, after going by boat its my fav way to travel without a doubt, like yeah, if there are long queues it can be awkwars and ive never gotten as thorough a searching when i set off the metal detector as i did today (stupid metal covered jeans!) but like its such a great feeling when you get to take off and feel the pressure against you and see the ground melt away as yoy get higher and higher. For me the feeling is almost unbeatable!
Of course theres times that are better than others like for me id pick flying at night over any other times, its actually a night time one that im on now which is awesome! Like i know it might sound weird but theres something magical about seeing the lights of whatever city you are leaving spread out before you before thinning out as you come to the coast and they fade out entirely. Its great and right now actually im getting to see the sunset that i saw a while ago all over again. It was awesome bursting up through the clouds and seeing the sky slowly turning red. I dont get that view too often because its almost impossible to time it right but even if you dont get it the rising through the clouds is always awesome and it always makes me think of Aladdin and the part in it when he is bringing jasmin on the carpet for the first time.
Its actually the one thing im really jealous about with my friend Brian, see he trained to become a pilot and graduated at almost the top of his class and he has his pick of places at the moment. Now, while thats awesome and i am delighted for him i am really envious that he gets this view for a living. Like if he gets to choose red eye flights he can see this practically whenever he likes and with a panoramic view from the cockpit. Its something that id love to be able to do but for now i guess I’ll just have to stick to this small window with the best view in the world =)
