Not much worth writing about lately; I spent a grand total of six hours over the weekend driving back and forth from Burbank to Venice and LAX. On the visit to LAX I spent almost two hours negotiating traffic jams and arrived at the Lan Chile desk shortly after it had closed; luckily I was able to take care of my plane tickets over the phone today. Now I’m trying to find a place to stay for the two weeks that I’ll have in the Falklands. Sea Lion Lodge and Pebble Island Lodge look like interesting options.
Having lots of time in the car provided the opportunity to listen to an NPR talent show for kids aged twelve to twenty. If Sahara Smith isn’t a household name someday I’ll be really surprised. Listen to her song It Don’t Rain Much and try to guess her age — I bet you’ll be wrong.
