In retrospect, flying to Seattle for 3 days, Austin for 5 days, and Dallas for 4 days – all in a 5 week period – was overly ambitious. I definitely overbooked myself, and in the aftermath I very much paid the price.
I don’t regret it, per se, because all three trips were fun. But I don’t think I’ll be packing my travels together that closely ever again. And I’m very glad to not have to drive out to the airport for at least a couple months now.
I haven’t actually had a chance to write the posts or sort through all the photos from each trip yet, so instead I thought I’d start with a new addition to my Snapshots from the sky series, combining all three of these trips into one post.
Colorado to Seattle
It turns out when you leave Colorado just before sunset and fly west, you end up with a very extended sunset. It wasn’t until we were nearing Seattle that it actually started to get dark.
Unfortunately, my flight back was entirely in the dark so I don’t have any photos from the return trip.
Colorado to Austin
Colorado to Dallas
We weren’t able to book a direct flight back to Colorado, and while I was annoyed to have a layover, we did get some good photos from our flight out of El Paso.
Up next: Sisters weekend in Seattle!
