When I setup the dates for this trip I didn't even realize until two days before leaving that I would be missing thanksgiving. I also didn't realize that our Canadian day off also happens to be Columbus day. So I'm off till Tuesday. Yesterday was a long day, we woke up early and had to drive a little over an hr to get to our location.
Interesting fact: this commercial was filmed on the floor above us:

Also interesting aside from the terms they use and the Ironman type hologram used, its almost spot on. Lastly these are real airmen who work in that location not actors.
After we completed our job we drove an hour south and had lunch at a little place that was suggested to us called the boathouse, surrounded by cliffs and well the Pacific ocean.
We then drove another 2hrs back to LA where my coworker that's a flight back home (Colorado Springs) and I join him there on Sunday. Apparently it snowed yesterday in CS, should be fun landing.
Last night we took it easy, we went to in and out burger because he had never tried it. I think today we will swing by the Venice Beach and after dropping him off at the airport I might go by the Observatory (depends how far it is traffic is beyond belief)
Interesting read! Thanks for the update!
