10/1/12

The SL/TE is scheduled for a 5:35 am arrival. But (as usual) it arrived EARLY! Another 4:30 am arrival into LAX! After a short rest, Jim walked over to Phillipe's for some food, while I stayed at the station with the bags.

After we ate, we decided to do a 2x point run to VNC and back. Instead of carrying the bags on the train (and not paying the $4 per bag for day checking them), we checked them to VNC. Upon our arrival, because we had over 1 hour to wait, we checked them to LAX. At LAX, we did not retrieve the bags until shortly before 4 departed. Thus we did not have to deal with the bags during the layover or pay to day check them!

During the afternoon, things went really downhill. Eric arrived by bus from LV!

We all boarded 4 to CHI about 6:30 pm.

Jim & I had been assigned room 3 from LAX to ABQ and room 7 from ABQ to CHI. After explaining this to our SCA, Lorna, she allowed us to remain in room 3 thru out the trip.
