Robinson Crusoe 1,000,000 A.D.

64.
Maryan and Alex were airborne, and sailing faster and faster while rising into the air.
At first, they could almost count individual leaves and branches on the millions of trees below, then the individual whitecaps of waves on lakes and bays as the boat went faster and higher. Soon they were skimming along under a mass of cumulus clouds, through a blue sky gilded with sunshine, while below, under a thin haze of brownish-gray rain cover, glittered the tangled new beaches of the brave new world that Earth had become with rising seas. Maryan and Alex flew westward, popping through the sound barrier. They hung on as best they could. The boat flew smoothly, except for an occasional jolt through twisted layers of turbulent air. They flew westward, into the sunset, which perversely looked like a sunrise gilding the wide, shallow waters of new seas where a million years ago had been the deserts of the American Southwest. They flew over the Pacific Ocean, angling toward the equator, and Alex guessed the autopilot was readying for—what? Orbit?
Their course veered south, with the sun rising toward their upper right. They sailed over the ruddy Mars-like continent that had once been Australia, and then upward.
