I’m in the US right now, for a work conference and some meetings. It’s been an interesting trip already: a non-eventful flight over (when I was expecting it to be really bad having not flown economy to the US before, yes I know I’m spoilt), and a fascinating and very enjoyable tour of Los Angeles yesterday with a local limo driver. The technical program of the conference starts tomorrow, and it looks like a very intensive programme. More details as they happen!
Edit: Technically I have flown economy to the United States: when Susan and I went to Hawaii we were on economy. I should have said that I haven’t flown economy to the mainland US before. Or maybe I shouldn’t have said anything… 😉 Anyway, it was far-and-away the longest economy class flight I’ve ever done and I must say it wasn’t anywhere near as bad as I was imagining it.
