ready to leave Beijing. Looks like early morning, but it's actually around 1pm, smog city Beijing airport would have to be one of the biggest, its length is about 5km just has this eerie feel like there is a bush fire nearby, but I guess you get that from living in Australia this way to the runway following the yellow lines home of China Eastern still going on this runway, taking a while ( It's a big airport ) under that smog the massive terminal, which I would consider to be an engineering feat they way they built that ok, getting closer to take off looks like the "party" terminam and we're off so much smog thick blanket of it, so it is not smog purely from the traffic , but from all the factories in the surrounding suburbs of Beijing about 200-300km later, finally get to see the earth again big mountain range, starting North West off Beijing and then running all the way south. the Taihang and Luliang mountain ranges bit of snow on top moon, wing tip, mountain range nearly full moon loving the blue in this awesome light getting closer to Hong Kong and a change in the weather looking more like a cliff descending Just off Hong Kong construction on the new bridge form Hong Kong to Macau
