City of Smog-Angels.


It's strange to feel like the only person on the plane who's not on holiday. I'm in Pasadena for work, visiting some collaborating astronomers. My advisor and I only arranged the trip a week ago, so it's all very sudden for me... but it's been a solid trip so far. I went out tonight with a big group of local & visiting astronomers... I always love hearing British people tell stories over non-British drinks (like margaritas). I only hope that I have the same effect when I tell stories in foreign countries over sake or gin.

Tonight I'm staying in the Vagabond Inn. I'm not sure if this makes me a vagabond, or it just indicates that I need to be on the lookout for them under the bed.

Three flights, three days...
