The shuttle was prompt and we got to the airport with plenty of time to spare. (you'd think, since the pick-up time had to be THREE hours before departure) I did have enough e-500's to upgrade the HNL-SFO leg of my trip, so I opted to do it on this leg as it included lunch. (Outbound was just breakfast, didn't think it was worth it) Boarded on the red carpet again; Megan and Sheri are now spoiled. Unfortunately, they had to make a right turn as they boarded the plane while I got to take a left into first class. ;) The first class cabin was a 2-2-2 configuration. I usually try to get a seat in the middle 2, as those are naturally aisle seats. My warm fuzzy feeling went away when I found that I was sitting in front of a 6-year old. First class doesn't necessarily mean you get immunity from getting kicked in the back of the seat (or sitting next to stinky people, weirdos, etc.). Dad was to my right; Mom was behind him, and Daughter was behind me. Of course, Dad wouldn't want Daughter to kick him. So I got some lumbar punches during the flight, but it wasn't too terrible. The movie featured was "The Blind Side"...that was outstanding! Food was meh; I had some beef stir-fry.
We get back to SFO around 9pm. It's pretty cold, brr. Megan and I drove back to Folsom...the end of a great girls' weekend. Can't wait to go on another girls' outing! It's a different experience compared to going with guys and girls, and going as a couple. I'm hearing that there may be a Vegas trip in the future for someone's 40th...
