We Will Be Landing Soon

Another photo from yesterday's travels home, coming into O'Hare and struck by the way Chicago and its suburbs are laid out in a grid, and just how flat it is here! This is looking west, so no city skyline (the city and lake are to the east).

I have flown into ORD many times over the years but I can't recall ever landing after dark. However, at the right table you might see a view like this from the bar on the top of the J Hancock building---while sipping your 15 dollar cocktail.

@momzo I laughed at your comment about the $15.00 drink and thought that at least my window seat was free. Then, realized how much I'd paid for the ticket!! Thanks for your comment.

@anazad511 Thanks for the kind thoughts, Ana! I've gone from ice to freezing cold, but it's home sweet home!
December 10th, 2013  
Absolutely brilliant. It captures the essence of so many things, flying at night, the american grid system, earth from the sky. Fav, fantastic.
