Scotland – Day 1: Good Luck
We had an empty flight leaving San Francisco, which allowed both Kyle and myself to stretch out in the vacant rows, move the arm rests vertical, and get a few hours of shut-eye. Five hours later, I woke up, watched the rest of Elysium with Matt Damon, managed to power through the touching and solemn Nebraska with Bruce Dern, and before I knew it we were landing in London.
Even though David OG was supposed to arrive at Heathrow hours before us, his plane out of LAX was apparently delayed for almost two hours due to missing paperwork. He had to literally sprint out of his gate, fast-track it through customs, and high-tail it down through the terminal to make the flight. He did it, however, and his suitcase made the transfer as well. We arrived in Glasgow, picked up our rental car, and drove into downtown amidst grey skies and cool wind. We all managed to sleep on the plane, so all three of us are currently feeling quite fresh.
I hope this great momentum for the beginning of our journey continues on into the week. We're off shortly to our first appointment. I'll keep you abreast of any important news, of course!
