It&#8217;s always amazingly easy to travel the first time after the family trip.  There&#8217;s so many fewer things to worry about.  Timed getting to the boarding area just right.  They called my section to board just as I got to the  line.  Turns out the seat next to me was empty, so I got a bit more room than expected.  Since I&#8217;m going home right before christmas, I expect that flight will be completely full though.  Taking the overnight flight made it much easier to sleep and got at least a few hours of sleep, though of course sleep on a plane is never completely restful.  We arrived a bit early, and immigration and customs both went quickly, which meant that waiting at baggage claim was the bottleneck.  When I went to pick up the rental car, there was a free wifi code in the car.  It&#8217;s nice to see wifi popping up in lots of places now, but since I never spend anytime waiting around the rental car facility, I&#8217;m not sure what the point of wifi access is here.  And despite getting some sleep on the plane, I was still able to get to bed around 10pm and sleep past 6am, which was nice.  Today I&#8217;m looking forward to going to <a href=\"http:\/\/local.yahoo.com\/details?id=21392068\">Thai Garden<\/a> for lunch with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/users\/edpark\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/stc\/fck\/editor\/plugins\/livejournal\/userinfo.gif\" \/>edpark<\/a> today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trip went pretty well.
