Our Friday the 13th began at the Athens Airport Holiday Inn at 5:15am Athens. Everything was fine until we encountered the truth of
Mercury Retrograde, apparently the latter-day cult subscribed to by United Airlines, in which our 6 hour flight from Washington DC scheduled to depart at 4:00pm Eastern and arrive 7:00pm Pacific, and ended up departing at 11:30pm Eastern and arriving 2:30 am Pacific. The choices were to sleep it off on a stone slab in the BART station or to pay the $130 cab (Fog City Cab) ride. (Images: A stereogram of Athens)
and at home in Walnut Creek at 4:15am Pacific.
So, how was it sleeping on that slab!
