My First Plane Trip

This past spring I went to England. It was very exciting for me because I had never been on a plane before, and for a first timer, it was a very long plane trip. I got to the Calgary International airport at about 2pm Calgary time, and I arrived at Manchester Airport at about 4am Calgary time. England time it was 11am. That was one of the strangest nights I've ever had. There was only about three hours of darkness, so it was very difficult to sleep or even nap. But the views from the plane were incredible. Even when it was too clouded over to see much down below.

I did manage to see ground though when we were passing over the western coast of England. There were wind generators visible all along the coast, along with farmland and roads. I tried to snap this photo before we passed over. I succeeded, but it's rather blurry. My digital camera takes a bit to power up and ready. Sometimes it's a problem when the moment is passing me by.

As it turns out, I had thought I would upload the photo, but now I can't find it,. So I will find it, and then upload it once I have it.
