AMDITD - Episode 2: The long red line
there it is on the screen again - that long red line on the big blue ocean relentlessly tracing the path of our 747 as it made its way across the atlantic. once again there was talk about why the line was not straight from new york to frankfurt and once again we discussed the great circle line - after all what international travel is complete without discussing such interesting topics.
thankfully, mantra was quite relaxed during this journey since most of it was night-time (EST). we were treated to a showing of spanglish and i thought it was pretty good.
we already knew we had a very short transit at frankfurt but nothing could have prepared us for the walk-out-of-one-plane, climb-up-a-flight-of-stairs, climb-down-a-flight-of-stairs, walk-into-another-plane that greeted us.
just another 10 hours to go ...

Have a nice time in India! Were you blogging on the plane?
Unrelated to your post, but I saw that you are/were listening to 'The Vault'. Even though many consider Def Leppard cheesy glam-rockers, I'm kind of soft on them cos' at 14, they were the first rockers that really impressed me (Floydos & Zeppers are probably spitting in disgust). But nice to see another Def Leppard fan around. :)
'Two Steps Behind' & 'When Love & Hate Collide' will always set off the nostalgia waves in my head!
oh yes! def leppard is an old favorite and i remember "hysteria" would be on an infinite play loop at home almost driving my parents to hysteria!
