Las Vegas - Day 1

Arrived at the airport in SF to find no sign of my flight on the board. Due to the storms out east it had been canceled and I was moved to a later flight. Not really a problem as had a look around SF airport and managed to read a mag that arrived just before I left NZ.

The November DRIVER had a big feature on how GM are trying to become a car company again. Many of the models mentioned were at the SF Motor show that I went to last week. Had a great night to fly as clear skies made for a great view of SF as we left. We turned back over the city and flew south over Monterey Bay before heading to Las Vegas.

As nearly a full moon saw a lot of snow on the mountains. I heard on the radio reports that chains were required if driving. Got in late and after a brief "scout" to work out where I was crashed - 12 hours walking around SF city and airport since checking out with me. About 01:30 awoke to hear my cell phone ringing. My sister had got the time difference wrong! Talked with her and also my Dad and Step Mom who were visiting. Was good to catch up.
