bird's eye view

I took these on one of the flights with Rocky in July. For some reason it never occurred to me (nor to him) to take pictures until then. We're planning to fly again this Sunday if the weather's good enough, and take some videos with his new camcorder to mail back to his family.

It was kind of a smoggy day (as it usually is in the summer), so my pictures look hazy.

update

I've been lazy and haven't posted my thoughts on my India trip yet...but I plan to. I've got pages already written in my journal anyway. I got back the week before Thanksgiving and apparently some bad sashimi on the airplane (we had a layover in Japan) gave me the gift of vomiting and diarrhea, the latter lasting a entire week. I was in bed for 3 days -- though I think it was due to the jet-lag rather than the vomiting, because I'd sleep all day and stay awake most of the night. It was terrible. And I got my period a day after I fell ill. Thanksgiving was awesome since my whole family was here, but one week later I got a cold again (I started getting one 2 days before leaving India). Enough is enough!

The weekend I was sick was also the weekend I got my Wii. I've been spending most of my free time between Zelda and Final Fantas XII, but I will get to the India trip posts some day... :-P
