(Delayed posting – written at about 2am my body clock’s time and almost 7 am Dublin time.)
We are flying over land now. I keep chuckling internally at the travel map because the airplane icon looks so very silly over the country of Ireland.
Landing in 10 minutes, The Luka State concert in about 16 hours. Hoping for a fun day in Dublin and for a nap!
Random Thoughts on the Miracle of Flight
In this modern world, we sometimes forget to be amazed
In mere hours we travel across the Atlantic Ocean
Humans have been to the moon
Robots have been to Mars
In my lifetime probes have gone past Pluto
300 years ago, the expanse was a treacherous journey that took weeks
500 years ago, the journey was unthinkable blasphemy
Innovations disrupt not only our way of life but our way of thinking about life
Human designed flight is miraculous
Crossing an ocean in less than 6 hours phenomenal
Make time to stop and be amazed

While we marvel at the 21 century tech,that is truly incredible, think of the Christ Cathedral that is almost 1000 years old, though those windows may be younger.
It is amazing what we built then with crude materials.
