Bird Eye View

We were headed to China, unbeknown to as at the beginning of our flight to Singapore.  The airline wouldn't believe that upon arrival a visa would be automatically granted and stated we could enter with our tickets. Off to Beijing we flew.  Flying over China I was amazed at the old landscape; old mountain terrain, rock and sand, no trees. The glitter of lights from small villages scattered miles apart from each other endless, over this vast desolate landscape.
