Hello everyone! A very warm welcome to you all! The video I have chosen for this post is a 4 minute clip of an Emirates Airlines A380 First Class - Bangkok to Dubai. I found it absolutely fascinating! Enjoy!
I have only traveled by airplane twice in my life, and that was about 35 years ago when I went to New Brunswick from Montreal...and the return flight. It was a 45 minute flight, very brief, so I haven't been on a plane in so long! I found this video clip fascinating!
In my view, I think that as adults we often lose our fascination with people and things in life. Children are naturally curious and fascinated with things around them, and I think we can learn so much from them. With all the stress of day to day life, sometimes it is difficult to just sit back and enjoy the people and things around us, but when we are able to do this our lives are calmer and happier...well, I can speak for myself, but I am sure that this is the case with many of you as well.
The photos I am sharing today are ones that I took back in September 2013. You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.
Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share.
I can enjoy the smallest thing, Linda... even your 'green' photos !
ReplyDeleteLie(f)s.
la dernière fois que j'ai pris l'avion, je revenais de Montréal, ce n'était pas en 1ère Classe mais c'était un beau voyage de nuit.
ReplyDeleteMerci Linda pour la vidéo et les belles images
The video you selected for this post is really good Linda! Love airplanes in general, and that flight looks so good.
ReplyDeleteGreat video. wow. The photos are nice to see when all we see right now is white.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, what a massive plane, I can only wonder at the size of the engines. Cheers from Jean
ReplyDeleteWe have no need to fly, you and I - we are where we want to be!!

Your right Linda.
ReplyDeleteI think as I have gotten a little older I am back to having a child like fascination with the world once more ~ and you are so right being "in the moment" is relaxing.
I've flown first class only one time...when we traveled standby with friends whose daughter worked for the airline and who had gotten a companion ticket for us. But it was nothing like what was shown in the video! That's almost enough to make me want to fly somewhere again.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year, Linda!
ReplyDeleteI fly at least a 2 to 3 times a year, but believe me, it is budget class all the way!!! Buy I love to go places and even though I don't really enjoy the flight itself, it's worth it to go somewhere new. Or go back to someplace I love.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are beautiful Linda!!
ReplyDeleteYou have flown one more time than I have! :-)
I am looking forward to taking this trip - Happy New Year to you from Sydney xx
ReplyDeleteLovely blog! Thanks for commenting today on my wish blog. How did you find it? I only set it up for my family.... They always need gift ideas! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI haven't flown in years, but I enjoyed it. Except I started feeling airsick the last few times I flew. Not good! :-) I agree with you on staying fascinated and curious.
ReplyDeleteYes fascinating clip! I've flown from England to Malaysia and back on a number of occasions - that's a 13 hour flight and let me tell you - it's boring! And tiring :)
ReplyDeletethat's nice Linda !

I had taken flight few times and somehow I find it very tiring.
ReplyDeleteI guess its travelling from home to airport takes at least 5 hours - crazy isn't it.
I totally agree with you on the fascinated part.
And that's what I enjoy about gardening.
Thank you for dropping by my garden blog and comments.
I've flown a lot over the years Linda, but never been first class. Would be nice to try sometime.
ReplyDeleteLove those grapes, they look succulent.
The smallest things in Life Linda are sometimes the most memorable. I enjoy my short flight's to visit my family ...as it's a lovely family get together.
ReplyDeleteHope the New Year is A happy one for you .
Hugs Sheila x
wow, it's indeed been a long time since your last flight. hopefully someday you'll have the opportunity and reason to take another flight, for pleasure =) i actually dislike flying though. the long waits at the airport, the often-delayed flights, the discomfort and tight squeeze during long flights ... i'd rather not fly, to be honest =)
ReplyDeleteflott innlegg igjen med en fin video :-)
ReplyDeleteLinda I am going on my very first plane flight in March and I am so so so nervous lol
ReplyDeleteconfortable dans cet avion..
ReplyDeletej'aime bien tes photos automnales
have a nice day
Good contrast of colors. Linda.
ReplyDeletea kiss.
Customs on different airlines can truly be fascinating. I've traveled all over the world and lived abroad and I never tire of it!
ReplyDeleteThat plane is unbelievable. That has to be a very, very expensive ticket for that flight! It was a fascinating thing to see though. Yes - - living in the moment and appreciating what's around you is great - - - especially if you don't have to deal with stressors - - like work - - thank you, Retirement!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, we should try to keep our childlike wonder and curiosity as long as possible. :) And I'd love to try one of those beds as I fly alot, but I'm afraid they are too $$.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors in the leaves. Hope you are still keeping warm!
Las tonalidades de tus fotos nos hacen recordar el otoño. Un abrazo,
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours in those photographs....
ReplyDeleteI've been on airplanes quite a few times, but never First Class!
ReplyDeleteOh, I do enjoy all the things around me. It's one reason I enjoy my walks so much.
I want to keep my feet on the ground...LOL even if I was able to fly first class.
