I went to Target tonight to pick up a couple of little things and I saw a Lufthansa A340 taking off from Logan. It made me smile. There is something graceful and beautiful about the A340.  Sometimes I get jealous because I want to be on the aircraft that are taking off.  That wasn’t the case this time. I just smiled and wished them clear skies and safe travels.  A little later, I looked up the flight and saw that it was Lufthansa flight LH425 enroute to Munich. It’s scheduled to land at 8:10 AM local time. I’ll still be sound asleep when it lands.

A little later, I saw an Aer Lingus A330 taking off for Dublin. It was flight EI0132. It didn’t excite me as much.
