Charlie grins over at him as they fly over the village and laughs as she grips her cup of coffee so it doesn't get spilled. And then her face goes completely blank and she just stares.
Reno's got a way with words sometimes, but he didn't do the view justice. It's huge and magnificent, and Charlie is suddenly intensely glad to have a perfect memory. The fact that she'll be able to recall this image whenever she wants is one she'll be glad of later, but at this moment all she can do is stare. No thought, no analysis, just a long, hard struggle to take it all in.
