Kristin Pires and I have made it as far as Heathrow airport in London. Brief hassle at SFO when United overbooked our flight to London and started to involuntarily bump people off of the plane. There had been an earlier cancellation on, I think, US Air, and when they starting re-arranging seating to re-book people, my seat assignment evaporated. Or so it seems. But it was straightened out and we both made it onboard and to London without incident.

We've confirmed our seats on the flight to Cape Town. We're flying South African Airways there, it's about a 12 hour flight. Looking forward to arriving!
