So I don't know where I would have ended up had the Boarding Pass Inspector not stopped me from going through gate 2... but I'm glad he did. Those who know me know I'm not a morning person and can be a little stabby without coffee. A pre-dawn flight before breakfast and apparently I wander off sometimes too. Good to know.
Anyway, a few winks on the flight to Chicago, a walk the distance of Ottawa to North Sydney to find the connector (biiig airport), a quick breakfast with coffee, and I made the correct gate for the second flight on my first approach.
Just checked into the hotel in Santa Clara. Really hungry, a little tired and probably a bit stinky. They've been polite to me so far so I think I'll clean up a little before some foraging.
I passed Wayne Beaton on the way in. He's a big eclipse guru whose numerous online articles have answered numerous questions of mine. I'll have to say hi the next time.
Oh yeah, it's raining :(
