I love it, when, for a moment, you get to time travel: today, the combination of the sun and the dry wind in the afternoon, the snapping flags, and the glittering cars made me remember what it felt like to be going on errands with your mom but not knowing where and why (just sitting in the backseat of the car). Look out the window, and there it is...the Capitol Expressway Auto Mall, with rows and rows of sparkling cars under the California sun; the flag poles pierce the sky. The sky is blue, the flags undulate with the wind (like the fish of the sky!) and there is so much space everywhere.
Similar blue/space/bright and windy days:
Trip from Kansai International Airport in Osaka via Nankai Rapid Service to Namba...over the bridges and if the timing is right, you see sparkling rivers.
On tops of buildings overlooking cities or the high points of San Francisco, on sunny days.
yadda yadda.
