End of trip

Wednesday morning
345 alarm, shower
358 in car headed to airport
438 thru check in, security, immigration, to gate

Very displeased with united. Middle middle seat for 10 hr hong kong San Francisco flight.

Tuesday afternoon email advised my flight from hong kong to chicago was cancelled. Automatically rebooked to San Francisco then Chicago, then Greensboro. Excruciating ten hours with stupid movies, animated king Fu panda, cars and action here captain America. Ugh. Wait listed for first to Chicago, didn't make it. First to Greensboro big deal!

Our Tuesday night was nice though. Dad came home a litle early, we went to united office in town to check on fligt and seating ... They could do nothing! Then went to art gallery. Dinner was at the French place, we walked in a drizzle. Nice meal.

All flights were ok. slept as much as possible. in the Chicago Red Carpet lounge sat with John Isner (he sat by me) who was coming back from Beijing where he pulled out of a tournament because he was sick. I didnt ask details! Wow he is really tall. Even the bulk head seat was a tight fit for him on that small plane. I gave him some tennis pointers from my years of playing tennis!
