Northern California

It turns out that California is not always sunny.
I am in Sacramento, and it was foggy and cold yesterday. I didn't plan for that.
Today the sun is shining, thankfully.

I had two interesting flights yesterday. The first one wasn't too bad, but there was the announcement of "Our hot water heater isn't working, so there is no running water in the bathroom sink." The second had "Our auxiliary power is inoperable, so we're going to need to start up one of these engines here at the gate. It'll be a little while. We notified the pneumatic air team that we were going to need them, but they haven't arrived yet." I was also sandwiched between a man watching Welcome Back, Kotter on his portable DVD player without using headphones and a guy with books about learning a language, which I could not determine. The latter passenger also had his Bible handy and seemed rather nervous about the flight. Neither said a word, unless it was requesting something of the flight attendants.

Sacramento is a quaint little state capital with a lot of charm. There are good places to eat, but not much to see unless one wants to spend the day museum-hopping to all American history museums, gold rush themed, of course. Since my trip is overly educational as it is, we're just going to wonder around the city. Today holds a walk through what I hear is referred to as "Old Sac".
