The trip over was very turbulant. From Seattle to New York I rode in a Boeing 757 and the wings flapped like a bird because there was so much turbulance. Not to mention the food was inedible. The trip from New York to London was better as we were on a larger plane (777). The Rocky Mountains don't look so big at 35,000 feet! My first glimpse of Europe was the south of Ireland which was fine with me as we have Irish heritage. When I left New York the sun hadjust gone down. When I arrived at London only 6 1/2 hrs later the sun was coming up.It went around the earth one way and I went around the other way and we met on the other side
