We cruised at an altitude of 33,000 ft and for much of the post-Rome trip we had a tailwind of 45 MPH which meant we were scoot'n along at 600 MPH plus ground speed.
At one point Evelyn was leaning in Aubrey's lap, Aubrey was in mine and we all three attempted to sleep in coach class seating.
The stories of why the people were on this flight were varied. A group of young Americans were going to Ethiopia for a mission, a family spaced over three coach class seats and two first class were adopting both a little boy and a little girl from Ethiopia, yet another was a Chinese American woman visiting her best friend who lives in Kenya temporarily, and another two young women in Med School who were going to assist a hospital in Africa somewhere. These are all in addition to the many coming back to visit a grandpa or grandma as one little girl who made friends with Evelyn said she was going to "Etopia" to see her grandma.
