Charles de Gaulle International Airport, terminal 4 (*If memory serves...). A woman holding her child, silhouetted against the rising morning sky.

One of Paris' two major airports.

We arrived In CDG (Paris) on layover, just before sunup, in late November. I was sick, exhausted and frozen solid. We'd already been hassled by security and we still had a long layover, and flight, to look forward to. The Huz ran to find some hot breakfast, while I tried to sleep. I fidgeted uncomfortably in the airport-torture-chairs and was too paranoid about our bags to really doze completely. I finally "awoke" feeling even worse than I had to start with...and then I looked in front of me and saw this picture. It was worth it.
