woauw, check out the old plane next to us, Boeing 737 Romanian Air I spoke to soon, should not have called the plane next to us an old plane, as we ended up stuck on tarmac while the engineers had to check a switch that was displaying an error. And naturally Romanian air did not have a problem and took of before us :-) Now, 45 min later, ready for take off, but I know I missed my connection to new york now, damn ! smoggy looking Brussels
Brussel's Atomium Location I've never really used to its max potential, and should ! The port at Ghent, zeehaven BA planes had a paint job, I assume for the olympics if you look hard enough you will see the Belgian coastline





great view of the Thames snaking to the sea and the O2 at the bottom of the screen after a quick exit and then a what seemed way too long queue to get new flight details as I landed when my connection took off, I had just enough time to go to the toilet and new terminal and board plane for New York all lined up ready to go but wait, the queuing is not over yet ( turns out this will be all about queuing the next 3 weeks, queue to check in, queue at security screening, queue to board, queue to exit, queue at customs, queue at shows, damn I hate queuing up ) but my seat is right on the wing, so no amazing cloud photos from this journey ( shame ) best I can do when plane makes a turn to the left :-) 6 hours later, descending to JFK airport ( I gave up trying to get a good cloud shot with that wing in the way )
ok, land and queue at customs
