At first, I didn't notice how odd this cabinet is. But now that I see it, it seems wrong. This is in the exhibit on Josef Frank in the San Francisco Airport.
A label explaining Josef Frank's motivation in the cabinet's design.

The Flights
My dinner on the KLM flight to Amsterdam was alright. It's not worth writing more about.
Maybe it was because I was feeling sick (airsick?), but I found most of these breakfast items inedible.

On The Ground
As seen from the plane, the landscape around Paris is a patchwork of different colored farms.
The sweeping roof of Charles De Gaulle's train station.
A panorama of the same sight. On the day we arrived, I vowed I would take this picture. However, at the time I made the decision, we were already on the lower level (where I took the preceding photo) and simply wanted to get to our apartment in Paris. We didn't want to head back up the stairs for a picture that I could take another time. Hence, I took this picture on May 24th as we left Paris but filed it here with the pictures of the day we arrived.
