As we looked down at the endless sheets of
ice, we had several minutes of thought and conversation to whether
or not we could actually see a polar bear from the air. We decided
on “no”—too high and bears are white too—but the reason we talked
about it so long is, there wasn’t much else to do.
This is the cabin of the 747 we flew
over on. I mentioned that the trip was 9 days. But only 7 were spend
in China because a day each way was spent cooped up in this flying
tube. The actual flight time was 12 to 13 hours but after factoring
in connecting flights on each end, delays and the usual time spent
in airports it was well into 30 hours.
