My first breakfast in SF

Absolutely spellbinding. Service, and the yumminess of these ginger-
cinammon pancakes surpassed my expectations.

The only drawback was that Dottie's True Blue Café was in a seedy part
of the town, the area on the borderline of the tenderloin.

Wash your Hands

This sign was posted outside a Safeway supermarket in Fisherman's
Wharf. What is it there for? I for my part defied the warning and
bought my tortilla chips.

In Thin Air

So here I am, up in the sky, thanks to the density of air and other
important physical effects. Thank you oh ye Gods of turbulence and
high pressure zones for the assuring smoothness of the flight thus
far. Thank you United for providing me with a comfortable seat in the
very last row - 61B - with a congenial, low-key Swede as my sole
neighbour.

If I an a good judge I would say that the plane has been filled to the
last seat on this 747. I will leave the sardine association to your
imagination. They are now showing a film about an aged boxer who has
turned into a wino and who can not shake off this youngster who I'd
fascinated by his Bob Marley looks. I preferred to pass on this film,
because people were standing in the way and you don't want to wake the
sky marshal by yelling put loud. First film was "Stardust", a fantasy
flick with a noteworthy cast, including Robert De Niro as a closet
transvestite.

Corinna and the kids brought me to the airport this morning. It was
surprising how fast you can get to Tegel. Shed a tear saying good-bye
to them all, I guess because it's the first time I will be away for
more than three days.

Flight to Frankfurt was a breeze, only took 50 minutes, had a foot-
long Foccacio (defintely not an Italian invention on this form).

After the first movie they showed a map showing that we were flying
over Iceland. That country also brings back fond memories of my trip
there in 1995 together with Olaf on our return flight from the
States. I don't remember very much of the flight.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs took the wraps off a super-slim laptop computer,
dubbed the Macbook Air, that aims to capitalize on the buzz around the
company's iPhone and iPod devices. The Macbook Air, which starts at
$1,799, measures 0.76 inch at its thickest, weighs about three pounds
and turns on the moment it is opened.
