After all the build-up about the Bay Bridge being closed (”Expect delays!”, “Traffic traffic traffic!”) we left for the airport shuttle way early. But once we got to the Airporter station we knew something was up. There wasn’t anyone else there. We had a whole bus to ourselves.
When the bus got on 101 bound for SFO we were totally underwhelmed by the traffic we saw. Where were all those people that we were so fearful of running into? That million dollar advertising campaign must have worked. We both commented to the bus driver that we had never seen the traffic so light. So of course we got to the airport way ahead of schedule. We thanked our driver and lugged our luggage into the terminal.
When we got into the international terminal my jaw dropped. I had forgotten about how spectacular the inside of it is. That ceiling just goes on and on! At some angles it looks like a DNS strand stretched above us.
As we approached the Singapore Airlines ticket counter, I got a little queasy. There was a line of people waiting to get checked-in. But then I noticed it was the coach check-in. We walked past them to the posh business class and first class check-in area. I felt positively snobby… for just a moment. Then I enjoyed taking more photos as Ron checked us in.
