there was some flight drama that i don't really want to re-live, suffice to say that booking a transatlantic flight during a harried lunch break on a busy acute medical unit was not my brightest of moves. thankfully, minimal damage done and after exhausting my powers of persuasion, managed to wrangle an acceptable compromise. one-stop flight changed to direct flight and credit for my next visit stateside. hm. could be worse! when i landed in frisco, went straight to the airport hotel and walk along the beach to clear my head.
set off bright and early the next day and took the coastal drive south. big sur was beautiful, to say the least, and the wonders of social media is realising that an old friend was in the area (ok, 6h away in venice beach) but we penciled in breakfast at the beverly hills hotel for after the wedding. score! yay for friends who reach out and make time to be present.
