In San Diego

A while back, when I was trying to make reservations for this trip, I couldn't figure out why all the hotels were booked.

I have arrived in San Diego (tired and Joneseying), and discovered that the reason for the lack of hotels is the fact that this weekened is the world famous San Diego Comic Book Convention.

Airborne again

Flying to San Diego.

Exhausted

After a really long day, marred by delays everywhere, finally arrived in Denver in the wee hours of the morning. I even accidentally checked the book that I was supposed to read on the flights.

More later...

Airborne today

Flying to Denver.

On the way there I will be reading Zorro by Isabel Allende.
