Wish I would've mentioned this earlier, but jet lag still has a hold on me, so I'm not thinking too clearly.
We ended up flying from Honolulu to Denver (instead of SFO). It was an overnight flight so we got into Denver in the early morning hours.
Flying over the Rockies (still snowcapped at higher elevations) with the rising sun shining on them was beautiful.
As we approached Denver, we were flying at about 20K feet and descending. We had a couple of banks that when you looked out the window, the mountains appeared to be just feet from you. Stunning.
All in all, the 6 takeoff and landing segments we had were very good. Not too much turbulence either. My wife used her drugs and all was good.
