On a business trip in Oct, I spent the weekend in Paris.  While there I bought painting from an art student – on the right above.  After a small amount of research, it seems clear where his/her inspiration came from.  On the left is a painting by Daniel Kessler, a Washington DC base artist.  Agree?

Namibia is located to the northwest of South Africa along the Atlantic Ocean.  Food & Wine claims the landscape, food scene are worth seeing including several recommended hotels & safari’s.  Interesting.

Typically, airline reserve flight number “1” for their flagship route.   After obtaining several Heathrow slots from Air France, Delta inaugurated DL1 from JFK to LHR (London Heathrow).  Recently I had the opportunity to travel on DL1.   For me, the über aviation geek, it was quite enjoyable.

Other Notable flagship routes:

Continental Airlines, CO1: Houston (IAH) to Honolulu (HNL)

American Airlines, AA1: New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX)

United Airlines, UA1: Chicago (ORD) to Honolulu (HNL)

US Airways, US1: Phoenix (PHX) to Chicago (ORD)

Turkish Airlines, TK1: Istanbul (IST) to New York (JFK)

Lufthansa, LH1: Hamburg (HAM) to  Frankfurt (FRA)

Japan Airlines, JL1: San Francisco (SFO) to Tokyo (NRT)

Korean Airlines, KE1: Seoul (ICN) to Tokyo (NRT)

Here are two pics I really like from Geneva.  Taken during a run through the city.
