Introduction to today's journey
Today's journey takes me from Kiev flying across to Frankfurt Airport. There I have several hours layover before continuing on my next flight towards Dubai.
Today's Journey
|
I take a taxi out to the airport in the small hours of the morning. The airport is particularly busy with hundreds of Orthodox Jews having attended a conference here and now returning home. |
|
Departing Kiev before sunrise looking over the city and the Dnieper River. |
|
View over the city and river as the plane climbs higher and turns westward towards Germany. |
|
The sun rises as we reach altitude now flying over Slovakia. |
|
The sun now shining on the high cloud. |
|
We are following the sun so the sunrise is very long. |
|
It is still rising as we descend into Frankfurt Airport through low clouds darkened by the higher clouds. |
|
I am only transiting here at Frankfurt Airport (the westernmost point of this journey) so I photograph some of the large pictures in the airport. I hope to come back and visit at some stage. |
|
In the terminal for several hours awaiting my next flight across to Dubai. |
|
The plane flies over the Black Sea as the sun sets on my way across to Dubai. |
