Made it! I was pretty woozy on the one-hour jump down here, and it was unpleasantly cold. I should have complained to the flight attendant, but I wasn't very coherent.

OK, too funny. I was writing the above while sitting near the baggage claim. The carrosel had just started up, when the PA paged me and about a dozen Japanese people. I jumped to the correct conclusion, which was that my baggage hadn't made it. Remember the close connection I'd been unhappy about? Yeah, about that.

My bag's on the next plane, which already left. They nicely offered to deliver it to me. Which is great, except I have no frelling idea where I'm going to be. I'm reporting to Seps Company on Camp Pendleton, but Pendleton is a big base, and I don't know where Seps is. I suppose that the delivery guy could ask around same as I will, but I don't want any more hassles than I'm already walking into.

So I'll wait an hour and a half at the airport for the next flight to come in, and just collect it then. The baggage desk guy offered me a meal voucher, which was certainly kind. The food here doesn't look as good as the stuff in Japan was, but I'll deal.

PS Free wi-fi! Those bastards at San Francisco wanted me to pay $10 for the privalege.
