I love readeye flights. Not. Got to the airport a little early, only to find that the Alaska Airlines Board Room closes early on Saturday nights. Guess I’ll have to pay for drinks and snacks. I stopped at the first place I came to — hunger called, there wasn’t time to eat coming back from the island and cleaning the apartment before heading to the airport.
Had a burger and bourbon. It wasn’t until I was finished that I slapped my forehead and remembered that further down the concourse was Anthony’s — which has good wine and oysters on the half shell. Next time.
Flight to Dulles (Washington, DC) uneventful other than spilling a drink on myself, one that was amusingly served in an American Airlines plastic glass (on a United flight!), and a nice flight attendant in First (I was one row into coach) who comped me a couple of scotches in a real glass. Two movies, didn’t sleep.
More bad airport food for breakfast. Exhausted. Sleep entire way to San Juan.
