Thursday, July 19th, 2012.  1:15pm.  Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.

We’re all smiles boarding the Korean Air flight 36 to leave the United States for Thailand, but it is always sad to say goodbye to friends and family. The flight itself went really well.  The food was good, the flight attendants attentive, and the in-seat computer consoles provided us with hours of entertainment to help pass the time.  I think they said it was a 14.5 hour flight, but I could be wrong.

Here’s the path our flight took on the way to Seoul:

Flying over the Eastern Russian mountains was particularly breathtaking, I thought.

We spent the rest of this day in the air, so there’s not much more to tell from the 19th 🙂  On to http://www.jaycarlin.com/jayandbeth/2012/07/20/arrival-in-thailand/  for more!
