SCBWI LA Preview

Filed under: Conferences, SCBWI

 My ability to function–take pictures, remember names (my own included) has deteriorated as the night has gone on.  Thanks goodness most people are named Jeff…hmmmm that doesn’t seem right.  Bear with me– I’ll be on my game tomorrow.  Brought the good camera.  But in the meantime, some phone shots to get you in the mood…

I’m getting closer!!!  And BTW, it was a -55 degrees up there at 37,000 feet.  Much warmer in the cabin though.  :o)

Props to the folks at Virgin America, they did a very nice job and I liked the little American flag on the wing.


It was a beautiful, clear day to fly and I’m always in awe of how big and amazing the world really is.

 

My first view of the Pacific ocean evah!!!!!  I’m pretty pumped about that.  California, here I come!

Loving this hotel already.  Look at that beautiful sun.  Even better when it’s 73 degrees, breezy and not  humid. *sigh of contentment*

Behind curtain #1…Lovin’ it!

Part of the view.  I think this (below) is the site of the 40 Winks Gala (Giant Pajama Dance Party)


The weirdest thing for me is the lack of skyline.  Everything is so low to the ground and stretches out for what seems like forever.

That’s you’re taste of LA for the moment.  I probably won’t get too much more up on Monday.  I’ll do those posts later in the week, but I will be posting tidbits on Facebook and twitter.  You can follow the live twitter feed at #LA11SCBWI.
