I recently traveled by plane and I loved seeing the city I love at night, the view was beautiful.
I love flying!  Was it your first time on an airplane?
It was the first time I traveled at night, I loved it.
I prefer night flying as well.  I love how you can see the city lights moving, like it's the lifeblood of a living thing.
I share your opinion, it's great to see how small we are at that distance.
