Senator Corey Booker (someone with presidential ambitions) sat across from me on the plane. There was a slight incident on the plane in the back during the flight. I wasn't aware of it until they announced for us to remain seated at LAX while they removed two folks. It was an older Asian man and woman who had to be escorted off the plane. I'm not sure what it was all about, but they were conversing with police officers as I walked into the terminal.
There was a little communication error on the car service that was to take me to my hotel. I was looking for a Lincoln, but the driver was in a Suburban. The driver and I finally connected. He was extremely nice and originally from Sri Lanka. He was excited when he discovered I had been to his home city of Colombo in 2015.
I'm now at my hotel, and I have a view of the harbor. I think I'll turn in early tonight after some dinner.
The view from my hotel room. I'm in the port area of Los Angeles for the night before boarding the ms Amsterdam tomorrow afternoon. |
