The actual trip here was pretty uninteresting in the way that you want airplane trips to be. This is Marilyn and Brian Payne:
They are on their way to Rome to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. They also have visited at least one national state park a year for twenty years after going to Germany and Austria and realizing that there was so much of America they hadnt seen. they were delightful to sit next to on the very long flight to Paris (which turned out only to be 8.5 hrs instead of 9.5 - mustve gotten my time zones mixed up). Marilyn shared with me that the key to having a long marriage is "just really caring about the other person more than yourself." Thanks Marilyn.
And of course, I took pictures of the sunset:
and the sunrise:
The layover in Paris was long, but it gave me time to get a coffee, try and hear some French (plenty of which I heard, almost none I understood), and read. I also made friends with a very lively little boy who clearly had an abundance of imagination and energy - a wonderful, but formidable, combination.
The flight to Rabat was short - I slept through most of it!
