Description
People going places . . .United Airlines terminal
O'Hare International Airport
Chicago, Illinois
All these people were in such a hurry. I had a long layover, so I just wanted to get out of their way. Watching people is interesting.

I love the movement here...everything seems to be going somewhere! There is also an endless feeling to this corridor. Great colors, perspective, light. Wonderful photo!

This airport was quite impressive now that I remember it.
How do you conceive the airports when we'll go to the moon?

This airport corridor has always reminded me of the movie "Blade Runner." it wants to be futuristic, and it once was. Now it's just pleasantly quirky.
Airports to the Moon? Hmmm? Only YOU would ask such a question! I just know that I hate even short domestic flights in the US. International flights are interesting, because of the mix of cultures. Still, I think I would avoid a flight to the Moon!

A very good movie "blade runner". Actually you're right, this is quirky but still nice.
I hope all is well.
Cheers!

This is an OCD-free zone! hahahaha!
You know how I generally hate air travel. It's not the planes, it's the people. This trip out and back was actually very nice. People in airports are often rude. This time they were nice. I liked Iowa.

Yep! And they play that crazy Asian-sounding version of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. As much as I hate O'Hare, I do like hearing that.

OK Chiara,
Maybe I don't really hate airports. It's just that people can be very rude in airports.
It's nice to hear from you, dear!

I forgot to tell you something sweet that happened on my trip home. When the plane landed in Chicago, I stood up to put my jacket back on. I was having trouble getting my right arm in my jacket. I felt a hand behind me. It was the hand of a tiny, elderly woman helping me put my jacket on.
People are nice sometimes. When I turned and thanked her, she didn't say a word, but she smiled at me the way that a mother would smile at a son. That was a little moment that I will never forget.

I love moments like these. You understand that people aren't always so rude and nervous and if we could help each other sometimes, the world could be a better place ^-^
I bet you'll never forget these little things and you'll treasure them forever

Heheh, spoken like someone who travels a lot. Airports are still relatively new to me, hence the excitement probably

I don't travel all that much, Mari. It's mostly for work. I like being new places, I just hate the process of getting there.
