Large windows and that high up... eep! If I could ever live like that I would have to shelter myself and put up curtains so I could see like the sky but not the ground and see how far up I was...... But then I have terrible vertigo. People have a different rate at adapting to sounds. I remember sleeping over at a friend's place and suddenly a train ran right through the home... or at least that is what I heard. They were really amazed by my strong reaction but the tracks were actually really near the house. They had already forgotten their initial reaction to the trains. Even that loud noise, they didn't even hear it!!!
