Chromeo Day 3, To LA, then home...
So we got up early, had a quick breakfast at the hotel and hit the road to go back to LA, expecting the worst traffic ever. You'd think Monday morning rush hour in LA would be brutal, but for some unexplicable reason, we didn't hit any. We flew right through. It was shocking.
We dropped a couple guys at the airport for early flights, and then there were 2 of us left. We only had flights at 11pm though, so we had some time to kill. We ran a couple errands, like dropping off rental vehicles, replacing a damaged suitcase and then with nothing left to do, we headed in to town. We ended up in Hollywood with about 4 hours to kill, so I took a walk to a Mexican cantina I like and sat on the patio and watched people walk by. It was nice to have a little bit of relaxation time before hopping on a brutal red eye flight, made worse by a 4 hr stopover in Chicago.
Got back to the airport, everything was fine, got on the plane, it left on time at 11pm. And there was a baby behind me. On a red eye. These two things do not mix. It is now 7:45 am in Chicago and I hardly slept on the plane. We landed 3 hours ago and I've been roaming the airport trying to kill time. We landed here before anything was even open, so that didn't help matters. I was eventually able to get some breakfast and now I only have to kill about an hour before I can hop on the last flight back to Ottawa. At least American Airlines hasn't screwed me yet today, but then there's still time for that... Ah, the joys of travel...
