kevin_standlee | Arrived in Portland

The flight from Oakland to Portland was indeed very full, with a significant portion of the back of the plane holding UC Berkeley's women's gymnastics team, on their way to a meet at the University of Oregon. I stepped aside here briefly to check in any late work e-mails came in and to call Lisa, who had gone to a friend's house in Portland to wait for my call. I rekcon this means that my luggage should be waiting for me by the time I actually get down to baggage claim, so this is being more productive than standing around for fifteen or twenty minutes staring at a stationary luggage belt.

The guy in the seat next to me (CRJs are 2-2 seating) was about my size, so there wasn't a whole lot of room. And I'm taller than the cabin of a CRJ-700, but at least this time I remembered to duck and thus did not brain myself on the doorway.
