Sea and Mountains

My Greek friends want to know what it is like in Texas. I have told them that it is very flat and in most places in Texas, it is a long way to the sea and even further to the mountains. This is significant because most people in Greece live close to BOTH the sea AND the mountains. To illustrate the difference between the landscape in Greece and Texas, here are some pictures taken from an airplane in each place.

This is a picture that I took just after take-off in Greece. It doesn’t show the sea but if I had been on the other side of the plane, it would have been visible.

Here are some pictures  that I recently took from the plane as we landed at the airport in Dallas-Fort Worth.
