Here’s a shot of the very tip of the Gulf of California (AKA Sea of Cortez), shortly before crossing over Baja and the border back into the United States. It’s always interesting seeing major landmarks from the air. Large version viewable here.
This week’s challenge calls for halves, and I thought of my most recent flight home from Mexico. At that altitude, the view is divided between the Earth and sky.

Larger versions available here and here.

Hey, folks. Ever have that dream where you’re flying? This song captures that feeling in the best way. It’s actually one of the many remixes of the series’ Dreams Dreams theme, including a slower jazz version. This one only appears for a few minutes at the very end of the game; they were saving the best for last. Unlike its predecessor, NiGHTS: Journey Of Dreams quickly fell into obscurity after its release in 2009. The gameplay may not have been amazing, but its soundtrack remains one of the best on the Wii.
Good gaming, good music.
