Seattle to Taipei in less than 60 seconds

Actually 15h40m door-to-door. Taxi did not show up so A had to drive me in the middle of the night. What a trooper!

I cheated on this post. No upgrade to a comfy seat so I did not have space to get the camera out for the window shots – the black screen are fakes! I put them in to emphasize how exciting a 6,000+ mile plane ride can be. But, in fact, when I was awake it was very pretty because there was a full moon and we were headed west so we stayed underneath it. I saw the same full moon for a long long time –  from moon rise in our backyard Sunday night to moon set on Tuesday on Taiwan.
