Flying through the Autumn
I've been flying and I don't know why in this trip the views were amazing. In the flight to Valencia, the plane couldn't land right away and flew over the Albufera (a lake by the sea), passed Valencia and showed a panoramic view of the sun illuminated sea and went up through the clouds. In the other flight towards Madrid I could see the sunset as a thick pink-red line, I never saw the line of the horizont so thick! And finally in the way back to Sweden it was also sunny and we landed by a field of yellow topped trees. Then I thought I really have to go out to the forest! Because Autumn is the season of beauty. Also a little melancholic, but that's a frequent property of beauty. This September hasn't been so cold and it's now when the trees start to turn orange-reddish in the northern countries. When I have time I walk to work through the botanical garden between green, yellow and orange leaves. And as in the PhD comics, I think it has come the time for me to fall off the tree too. Well maybe not right away, more like in the Spring. Anyway who wants to talk about that... coming back to Spain, besides seeing the sea from the plane, I also swam in the sea! Not surprises yet, I know. We went to the sea one evening, before the sunset, and there was a storm coming so the colors were fascinating. From the water we could see an intense blue sky in contrast to the almost phosphorescent dark green of the waves. And the water was warm, 27 degrees, it was colder in the air! I have to describe it because I don't have pictures, just the images in my brain, but I´m not exaggerating a bit, it was breathtaking. However I will post some pictures of the Autumn trees, which I took today in a gorgeous sunny day, the cold hasn't realized that it is Autumn yet...
