La Paz
I arrived at San Francisco airport early to be sure I could sort out any itinerary issues after my call with the airline yesterday. But surprisingly all was okay. They checked my bag through to La Paz, Mexico, but I only had a boarding pass to Los Angeles. I was gonna have to hustle over to Delta Airlines from the Alaska terminal once we got into LAX.
While I was waiting in SFO, I was surprised to see some friends waiting to board the same flight to LAX. Sure enough, there was Tom, Angela, Nick, Amy, Paul and Paul's wife. They were also headed to Mexico, but lucky for me, a different city. Tom and Angela are getting married.
"Poor bastards," I thought to myself. But at least Angela bought us all a round of drinks.
Eventually we all boarded and got out of Dodge. When I emerged from the rear of the plane in LAX, I saw none of my friends so I high-tailed it to the Delta counter, only about two miles away. It wouldn't have been so bad, but have you ever tried to speed walk in flip-flops?
Luckily, all worked out and I got on the plane.
The cool thing was that I got a left-side window, and this was perfect viewing to see the Sea of Cortez (a.k.a. "The Gulf of California") on the way down to La Paz.
Actually, the flight was great. I even could identify Isla Espiritu Santo, which I had planned to visit later in my trip.
We also got a great view of the city of La Paz before we landed.
Hola, Mexico.
