In America, I:
- Upgraded to First Class on a Virgin America flight and, for probably the only time, was in the first group of people on and off the plane.
- Ate Japanese food in the Sierra Nevada.
- With the rest of the audience, played like a kid with several kilometers of paper in the Blue Man Group show at the Venetian.
- Got up at 3am to get a bus to get a plane to get a coach. Ugh.
- Flew on a DHC-6 Twin Otter over the Grand Canyon as the sun rose over it.
- Stayed in a huge black glass pyramid with a balcony outside the door that looked out onto the world's largest atrium.
- Picked up John Hodgman's new book, three days ahead of the publication date.
- Shook the hand of Penn Jillette.
- Ate antelope.
- Climbed Sentinel Dome and experienced one of the most awesome, panoramic views I've ever seen.
- Drank my first pumpkin milkshake, which is only available at one place I know about, and then only seasonally. With extreme irritation, I discovered that it was by far the nicest milkshake I have ever tasted.
- Flew back over the Atlantic at the time the British clocks were put back, saving 12.5% of the jet lag. Unplanned, but quite a good idea in retrospect.
Photos are going up at roughly the rate of one a day on Flickr, and further reflections on the holiday to follow here.
