Fly with me

I love taking pictures out of the window every flight I go on.  I don't know why 'cause they usually look the same but with different cloud shapes :D  What you can't tell from this photo is that it's about a 30ft drop from my window to the wing.

 

Smooth take off, not the typicall roar and lift off experience. Once up in the air, food service was started right away.  Ermirates definitely spoil you food wise.  I had smoked salmon served with a mustard dill dressing and potato caper salad.  Followed by grilled fillet, potato gratin and seasoned veggies.  All served on Royal Doulton.  Reminded me of the Ward Air days (yes dating myself here with that reference).

 

After that, most people tried to sleep.  I guess a big meal like that at midnight can put you out.  Watched a couple of movies and then tried to sleep.  I should have tried it sooner, because I didn't realize how many people snore.  A few people were hanging out a the bar (plus they have the late night snacks).  Went back to take a picture and couldn't help myself, I start chatting with a couple of people and before you know it, I am behind the bar.

I almost spilled the wine down myself because I was told to shake the shaker while pretending to drink from the wine bottle.  We were laughing so hard at times this was the only picture not blurry.  The staff are so friendly.
