Today I pack the bags for Worldcon. I have to pack the two bags I have (first class upgrade) so that stuff doesn't shift around, but not completely full because I expect to bring back more things than I take.

I'm still running on the Day Jobbe sleep schedule, so being up early enough so that I get to Reno airport with plenty of time for my flight to Seattle shouldn't be a problem.

Because of my schedule at Worldcon, I am not sure if I will update my journal daily. I personally only have one commitment other than dealing with travel and with hotel check-in on Sunday and Tuesday. Everything else is Kayla's responsibility, and I expect to leave the reporting to her.

Kuma Bear and his Girl have continued to go see things. Yesterday they visited the German Transport Museum in Munich. It was not their first visit there, but the place is so big that it deserves multiple visits.

Things get a little complicated in the next few days. I'm heading for Seattle and Worldcon on Sunday, while Kuma and Lisa will be in Lucerne, Switzerland. After being burned in Berlin, I made sure to contact the hotel in Lucerne to make sure they understood that the reservation was for Lisa and that any charges should go against my credit card on file, although in this case, there should be no charges (other than a small local tax that she'll have to pay, I think) because the room is on my IHG points. In my case, I'll be spending two nights at the Crowne Plaza Seattle before moving in to the Sheraton Grand for Worldcon. This is because my original reservation was based on driving to Seattle instead of flying, and when it proved to be more economical to fly (even in first class), I needed to arrive two days earlier than originally planned, and I was very concerned that trying to modify my Sheraton reservation might break it. Besides, I'm an IHG diamond member this year, so I might as well get some use out of it, although it does mean changing hotels on Tuesday.

Because of the European train vacation, Lisa will not be at Worldcon this year.
