I am not usually in tune with Wordsworth's thoughts but there are times when you fall prey to nature. Sitting on a Finnair flight approaching London and reading about pagan (nature) worship in Da Vinci's Code I looked out of the window and saw signs of the imminent substitution of blue with white as the ambience outside. The clear blue that had been there almost since departure from helsinki was going to go away. At an elevation of 34000 feet I could see a white linen sheet of clouds ahead. It was so thin that I could see more daunting clouds beneath it. Slowly the plane descended towards the linen. For a while the sheet seemed to shy away from us and then suddenly we were in it, white flaky clouds all over the place. as visibility got better I saw the undulent ocean of cumulus clouds beneath. It seemed like suddenly a new world has sprung upon me. Like alice into wonderland. It was a spectacular scene. For the longest while the pilot made his away avoiding the white cumulus clouds in their frightening shapes and formations. Then whooff, intp a cumulus we went, and did not come out till the land below us seemed to appear out of nowhere. It was an amazingly beautiful experience, wish I had a handicam outside the plane!
