¶Are kids addicted to their screens? Maybe, but they're not the only ones. This older couple stayed fixed on their screens on a recent flight while an incredible sunset was on full display on their side of the plane (and not mine!). I think they missed the entire thing, which is crazy to me. I have to look out the window when flying, particularly during takeoffs and landings. And definitely when nature is putting on a show.
¶My side of the plane on this flight had no view of the sunset, but I still stared out the window as we descended over Nova Scotia and approached Halifax. I occasionally glanced over to get a glimpse of the sunset through their window and noticed their intense focus on their screens throughout the entire process. After going back and forth a few times between my window and theirs, I realized the story of this scene and captured the photo.
