I had a great view flying over this part of the world especially of the small villages and towns in the mountains. In Austria, there were lots of windmill farms, which I’ve never really seen from above before.

Once again, I didn’t take any pictures (really wishing I had the iPhone or BlackBerry Storm with a camera on my phone right about now) so I cheated and snagged a few stock photos below. The architecture was beautiful in the capitol Kyiv – an interesting mix of West and East. I even got to see snow in the morning though it was just a few flakes here and there. Overall, it was a quick trip, but great to see another new city.
