I'm happy to report that last week's California travels went very well. The short version: The outbound flights were fine, only a slight delay getting into the Orange County airport. Grabbed a quick lunch at the airport, then got my rental car and headed straight to Disneyland, which was awesome. Cursed LA-area traffic on the way to pick up my employee at the Burbank airport for the drive up to Bakersfield. Woke early (as I expected I would) on Friday morning, so I went out for a little exploring before heading back to the hotel to get my employee and our colleague for breakfast and then to the office. After leaving work Friday afternoon we still had some time before we needed to get to the airport, so we drove around Bakersfield and found a neat park to kill some time. Aside from a slight delay before boarding in Phoenix, the flights home were fine as well (though very little sleep was to be had). All in all, a very enjoyable trip!

So first up: my first time visiting Disneyland!
