Flying Home

Portland, Maine, to Lancaster, Pennsylvania

Monday, December 5

 

 

This is what I saw as I was packing my suitcase on Monday morning.

 

 

 

 

In the air – leaving Portland, Maine.

 

 

I always request a window seat.

 

 

I love to look at scenery from the air.

 

 

 

 

Landing at Philadelphia Airport

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the air again – heading for Baltimore.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am always surprised at how pretty sunsets are in the sky…

 

 

…and how sunny it is above the clouds when it is gray and rainy below.

 

 

 

 

Landing in Baltimore

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was amused at how tiny the Cape Air plane looked next to the United plane – and the United plane wasn’t that big. There were three of us waiting for the Cape Air flight to Lancaster.

 

 

Part of me wished that I could open a window of the plane and take a flash photo of what I was seeing below. However, since I could not use my flash, you will have to be satisfied with squiggly lights.

 

 

The lights of Baltimore were breathtaking from the air.

 

 

By the way I was in the copilot seat again. The other two guys chose seats in row 2 and 3. I was surprised that when I went to the front, I had the same pilot as on the trip from Lancaster to Baltimore. I told him that we should have a good flight since I am experienced at sitting in the copilot’s seat.

 

 

Flying over Lancaster

 

 

Landing at Lancaster airport at 6:30 p.m.

It was another great day for flying. I had two hours at Philadelphia and Baltimore, so there were no concerns about connections on this trip.
