My friends Tatsia and Kelly like to go to the airport and watch the planes landing and taking off.














While we were out there the other night, there was a blackout – all the lights around us went out. But the lights at the airport stayed on.














You could look up in the sky and see the planes lined up for miles, waiting to come in and land.
All those people waiting to arrive – or to complete their journey of getting away. Lots of coming and going.










































My friend Ikuko uses her hands a lot when she talks. I think they are the most expressive part of her body.

What was it I said? “You float around for too long, and you start to look for your tethers.” Yeah.
