From the airplane window...

When you fly what do you like to do? Personally, I don`t like flying. I always get sweaty palms and feel anxious. But unless I swim or take a boat, it is the only way for me to visit my home town Philadelphia, so I have no choice.

But once I get on the plane and the plane takes off, I do my best to enjoy the trip as much as possible. I go to the restroom often, so I prefer to sit in an aisle seat. Really the window is ideal, because I can look at the exquisite view, but it is annoying to climb over two other passengers to go to the restroom every time. The middle seat is an absolute pass, too many elbows!!!

If there is a personal tv at the seat, I would watch movies the whole time. From take off til we land. But if no personal tv, then I like to read a book or newspaper. After that, I usually sleep. The more I can sleep, the better. When I was a child, I also played cards on the plane.

Also, I always order a vegetarian meal. I recommend to do this! I am NOT a vegetarian, but the vegatrian meai is light and healthy, and usually airplane food is NOT so good, plus the vegetarian meal comes before all the other meals so you can eat it first. Also, there is no risk, no HIT or MISS like the regular meals, for example, "Ah, I am sorry. We are out of chicken. We only have the fish..." No thanks!!

If it is a long flight, I try to walk around and strecth too as much as possible. And one last side note, on an international flight, I have flown first class once, my first trip to Japan. ON JAL. from New York to Tokyo. It was UNBELIEVABLE!!!

The weather forecast guaranteed it ain`t gonna rain today, so hope ya`ll can enjoy the sunny day today!
