It was an uneventful early morning flight with clear sky along the way. Following the warm welcome from the Purser over the PA, our flight pushed back ahead of schedule. We took off from Runway 25L, which was usually used for arrivals as the parallel Runway 25R was closed for routine maintenance. Do not ever underestimate the power of the two Rolls Royce engines. They were really powerful. That must have been one of the shortest take-off roll I've ever encountered and the climb rate was steep! Soon after we have reached the crusing altitude, breakfast service commenced. In addition to the standard selection of junk food, a more hearty breakfast menu was available for purchase.

Episodes of The Office were played on the two-decade-old CRT monitors mounted on the ceiling. As one could imagine, the screens were flickering and I didn't bother to watch. I spent the rest of the time enjoying the blue sky outside. Approach into Chicago was bumpy, REALLY bumpy. Shouldn't it be that way? I was arriving in the Windy City!
