DigitalQuixote > Departing Bhutan, after surviving the 10 days of iffy water and marginal food (tasty as it might have been), the climbout was exhilerating. These are actually the mountains we came here to see and experience. Although we didn't trek among them, I appreciated this view.
DigitalQuixote > To jump off on our flight to Bhutan, we start at the modern Bangkok airport. This is a very secure airport. We passed through 3 X-ray checkpoints and were physically searched at 2 of the 3. I guess we looked like we needed attention.
DigitalQuixote > Arriving in Bhutan was fun, interesting, scary. Scary? The approach to Paro follows a narrow valley. We bank 60 degrees to the left, then 60 degrees to the right. Our wingtips seem to scrape the trees on the valley edge. I am sure it's an illusion, but it's scary nevertheless.
DigitalQuixote > I love looking out the window during a flight, any flight, and this was no exception. The view of the ground yields an exceptional perspective! The view of the clouds! The view of other aircraft! The perspective of angels! This, as almost always, was pretty neat!
DigitalQuixote > Back to the nice, sweet, thick air at sea level in Bangkok.
