This has been one long day. I rolled out of bed at 3:45 this morning and was sipping coffee a few moments later.
After a shower and breakfast, I was on the road. It's an hours drive to the airport, and I wanted to arrive early to avoid any snafus.
As it turns out, I was on Santa's "Nice List" and I sped through security. I began to worry that I'd forgotten my deodorant, but that wasn't the case.
The flight was uneventful, which is the way I like for flights to be. The sky was blue, with big fluffy clouds.
I arrived in Orange County just after lunch. The hotel is very nice, with a balcony that looks out toward the ocean in the distance.
Did I take a stroll down to the water? No, I took a long nap.
My internal clock is all wonky because even though my clock only shows 7:27 p.m., it's really 9:27 Alabama time.
So, I'm going to drink some hot tea and turn in early tonight.

Taz, Calliou and I miss you.
ReplyDeleteSometimes you just need one of those early nights... especially when you have had a long busy day :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that your flight went well and everything went like clock work. I think that a long nap instead of a long walk at the beach will be more beneficial. The brain works better with sufficient sleep.
ReplyDeleteI can see you are being missed at home.
Have a safe trip back.

Oh, you're staying at the Island Hotel - very nice! You're actually just around the corner from where my parents live. It's very overcast today but that's ok - there are no bad days at the beach! Enjoy your conference, and hope you were able to reset your internal clock a bit.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really nice place to crash! I'm long overdue for a vacation... :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to get on a plane and fly off someplace
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics and I hope you have beautiful weather. I also hope a quick walk on the beach is in your future! It would be a shame to go that far and miss the Pacific...take care!
ReplyDeleteIt will be so nice to look out your window at that wonderful view.
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful...rest up and enjoy!
