2014 12 31 TYPICAL FLORIDA RESIDENTIAL VIEW OF NEW YEARS EVE

THIS IS THE OCCASIONAL, TYPICAL VIEW LIVING IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA.

FIREWORKS IN YOUR FRONT YARD OR BACK YARD.

DISNEY IS IN FRONT OF US (NOT LITERALLY), WHILE SEA WORLD IS BEHIND US (LITERALLY).

ITS USUALLY EASIER TO VIEW IN OUR FRONT PORCH.

NEIGHBORS TEND TO RUN OUT AND STAND IN FRONT OF THE SUB-DIVISION TO GET A CLEAR VIEW.  I'M JUST TOO LAZY TO WALK AND WOULD RATHER JUST OPEN THE DOOR.

THE NUMBER 4 FOR ASIANS IS NOT ONE OF THE LUCKY NUMBERS, I WONDER WHAT 2014 WILL SHOW US......

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

2013 10 22 MY HONG KONG TRIP_SKY ART FROM THE WINDOW SEAT

CLOUDS. 

SUCH A SOOTHING VISUAL AND A FORTUNATE-NATURAL VIEW TO HAVE.

I AM GRATEFUL TO LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE THE SKY LOOKS LIKE THE OPENING TO "THE SIMPSON'S" CARTOON.

AT TIMES, HAVING THE FULL WINDOW VIEW WITH THE WING OR SKY FULLY FRAMED BY THE PLANE LETS ME STARE OUT WITH ANTICIPATION OF CHANGING COLORS AND ILLUMINATING ABSTRACTS.  

ONLY 20 MIN AFTER DEPARTURE (3:40 PM)

WITH SOME MORE WAYS TO GO UNTIL REACHING FINAL DESTINATION.....

THIS PHOTO TAKEN AT 7:50 PM

EXPLORING ON SOME STATS.....

ABOUT  A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR, I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW AND WITNESSED CHANGING SHADES OF BLUE.  THE MINGLING OF THE CLOUDS DRIFTS FROM DARK TO LIGHT.  ARE WE CROSSING OVER THE TIME ZONE? LITERALLY?  MAYBE THAT SHOULD BE A QUESTION FOR MY PILOT FRIEND.  .....K.R.!!!!!

DARKNESS APPROACHED, GIVING IT A DIFFERENT DIMENSION OF COLORS.

      

I THINK I WAS WATCHING SOME MOVIE WHILE STARING OUT "IN SPACE" -- HA! LITERALLY.  THEN WE WERE INTERRUPTED AND NOTIFIED THAT WE WERE GETTING CLOSE TO LANDING.

FINALLY ARRIVED!  OH, IT WAS ONLY A BIZZILION SOMETHING HOUR FLIGHT. RIGHT?  

MY UN-ADJUSTED WATCH WAS TELLING ME THAT WE LANDED AROUND 6:50 AM-ISH 10/23 EASTERN STANDARD TIME, WHICH WAS TECHNICALLY AROUND 7PM IN HONG KONG.
