Coast to Coast

Coast to coast. Day one of this trip we flew to California and saw the West coast in San Jose. The top picture is of the Uinta Mts. They are out by Salt Lake and are one of the few mountain ranges in the world that span from East to West. Look it up on a map. Most mountain ranges run North and South but these run East and West. Kind of cool to see. The peak is Kings Peak and is over 13,000 feet above sea level.

The next pictures are what it is like heading to the East coast. Traffic, Traffic, Traffic. The West is very calm and quite and the east is very busy. Aircraft are all around you all the time and the radio is constantly talking. The two pictures with the airplanes are flying by only about one thousand feet away. Pretty neat to see. The last picture is of the cockpit instrument that shows all of the traffic. If you look at it you will see a yellow cross. That is our airplane. All of the white dots to the right are airplanes flying past and next to us. Very Busy. Well I am in New York today and back home tomorrow after a stop in Detroit. I am in China Town were they have all kinds of very authentic Chinese food, like tentacles and worms etc. Good thing for me there is a McDonald's around the corner.
