tagged together in 36 photos flying + wing Flew down to Florida on Thursday. ...and flew home in the afternoon. ...and then took me to the airport to head back home! Great to see you, everyone! In the air... Bingo! Airborne. See you later, lovely Caye Caulker. Fifteen minutes after taking off we circled San Pedro... Flying south along Belize's coastline. You can see the Placenia Peninsula in the background. Gorgeous jungle-river view under the wing. Back in the air a little after 2pm, I looked out the window and noticed things were starting to look gorgeously turquoise and tropical. We spotted Boracay from the air. Some kind of sea farming going on down below. Flying out over Manila. Chasing the sunset. Up. Coastline / wing alignment. Florida here we come! Outskirts of Managua. Momotumbo volcano from the air! Getting close! ...on to Managua. One more flight to Managua! PANAMA! Skivilization. ...homeward bound! Bye, Bali! Denpasar. Kentucky. I love flying over NYC in the daylight. About 30 seconds after this pic was taken, I conked the fuck out and slept the rest of the way to Texas. ...gone. Goodbye NYC (for now). San Francisco, here I (reluctantly) come.
Goodbye to the blustery, rainy, already getting dark at 4:30pm east coast!
Attention Staff at the Whitney: you can email me here. I look forward to hearing from you. Same. After hours of darkness over the Atlantic, we finally hit the eastern seaboard. I don't know if it was the weird nostalgia that comes from the end of a trip or if it was the plane's neato yellow engine and bad-ass cautionary graphics that did it...but shortly after becoming airborne I became inspired to start taking some...DRUMROLL....artsy photos! Yay art!
