Even when you’re rushing through the world’s 16th busiest airport to catch a connecting flight to a destination you can no longer remember, there can be an occasion of desolation to be noticed or not. I almost race-walked past this scene, distracted by my tardiness, plus the intimidating security line downstairs. It was a microcosm of a problem many of us unwittingly fall into when traveling – neglecting to notice the path due to focusing on the destination. The tradeoff though is usually a good one. A few minutes of time for a travel memory isn’t one we end up regretting, despite having to run a bit faster to not miss the next flight.
