Our travels began really laid back for this trip. Geoff arranged for our flight out of Dallas to be at 6pm, to arrive in Seattle late in the evening. We dropped the dogs off at the kennel at around 2:30, went out to lunch, then made our way to the airport. We were able to get the upgrade into first class, so we had some dinner on the plane, and we were able to stretch out and relax. I brought a really good book with me, Dog Man, which I thought would keep me occupied, but instead I finished reading it halfway through the 3 hour flight into Sacramento. We had a very short layover, no time to get a new book to read before we got back on a plane and were on our way to Seattle. The SkyMall catalog never seems to get old, so I thumbed through that for a while while reading over Geoff's shoulder to read his Popular Mechanics magazine. We arrived in Seattle at around 10pm, and hopped on the shuttle to go to our hotel. Geoff booked us in a room at the Airport Hilton, which is beautiful of course, and managed to get us into the room on points alone. So far, so good!
