Imagining the freedom and majesty of soaring as wandering albatrosses over the open ocean.

That would be amazing! Two albatrosses gliding together over the open ocean, riding the wind currents between the waves and sky.

We could soar over remote islands, follow ships across vast stretches of water, and witness sunrises from the middle of nowhere. The perspective would be incredible - seeing weather systems roll in from hundreds of miles away, watching pods of whales and dolphins from above, and experiencing that perfect balance between solitude and the vast living ocean beneath us.

There's something magical about the idea of such effortless flight - wings locked, barely a wingbeat needed for hours on end, just pure gliding mastery. Two albatrosses cutting through the air together, companions in that endless blue expanse.
