OK kids, here we go with another "Who'd a thunk?" situation. I have been away from Europe for over 16 years after spending 13 there, so it will be strange but good to return.
Tomorrow I go to JFK and will stay overnight at the airport antiseptic hotel as it cuts about 40% and 3 time zones off the trip to make the JFK to Paris leg only 7:45 elapsed with a 6 hour time difference. Including the hotel cost it still comes out about the same or cheaper than taking the direct flight from SFO, so no problem there.
I will arrive in Paris, wait a couple of hours for my colleague from Dallas to arrive, then we will stagger downtown to our hotel and try to work the whole day Wednesday.
I should add that I saw a taxi parked at a house around the corner and have made great friends with this brudda from East Palo Alto who also spent years in Vietnam in the war and Alaska working on the pipelines. Really cool guy, makes my trips to SFO very simple.
And away we go!
