| | Courier Report FER-1300 DISPATCHED: 02/03/07 DELIVERED: 03/03/07 kate rich departed Lui Velazquez thurs march 2nd and headed south, with Jenna who drove down from LA the night before. overnight stop at La Salina beach hotel, bags containing coffee overnighted in truck cab. friday drove late afternoon back up to tijuana, dinner of stingray tacos at la querencia. 10PM border crossing, traffic subsided dramatically to total miniqueue, 10 minutes max. border guard checked the cab by torchlight for hidden mexicans, we declared 2 bottles of wine and supermarket sweets. Cleared US immigration & customs, then 2.5 hours drive on clear highways (the 5, the 405, the 110) to silverlake, passing LAX airport on the way in. arriving at Materials and Applications in silverlake at 1AM where the bags were repacked in preparation for banff departure. 430AM taxi back to LAX airport, icy LA night for productive transition to the north. 645h flight air canada, slept till calgary landing over snowscape, 11AM, unusually mild +8 degree heat.

| onward transit of FER-1279 from Cube Microplex arrived Lui Velazquez 2007-01-19 |
kate rich walked Cube to bus station with approx 33 kg luggage, largely grocery products (gift & residency supplies). 8AM bus to Bristol airport, check-in was fraught with systematic dangers, detailed in-queue interrogation by US immigration agent and latest handluggage attack at the check-in desk. current offical panic allows strictly 1 carry-on bag including all laptops yet minus any liquids over 100ml, feral trade's luggage was oriented around safely stowing feral liquid goods in transit (1x swiss absinthe, 1x hertekamp jenever dutch gin, 3x cube cola concentrates) plus various uk jams, biscuits and 9x bags coffee for US distribution. however these 3x lightweight and compact check-in bags rocketed over continental airlines' economy limit (2x checked bags) so the desk agents attempted to charge 50 USD penalty fee for the distribution of basically groceries. after some negotation, desk agents provided a large clear plastic bag, 2 grocery-holding bags were placed inside henceforth making offically 1 bag for check-in at the fragile counter, no fee necessary. after this drama flight was relatively smooth, although taking off through massive isobar concentration of colliding cold and warm fronts that had been sparking 80 mph around southwest uk in preceding days. flew 8hrs to newark 'liberty' airport, where passenger and bags moved smoothly through immigration (friendly with jokes) and US customs {claiming only chocolate carried, no-one checked); no detentions or passenger bag searches witnessed, just speedy throughput.
at the carousel feral trade rented smart cart trolley (3 USD on visacard) for 50m walk to transit desk, rechecked bags for onward flight to los angeles. 6 hrs uneventful flying, neighbouring passenger credited the uncanny mildness of newyork weather to El Nino. Landed LA 1830 PST on the coldest night in memory, minus 2 degrees, snow on Sunset. grabbed bags from carousel and dragged them a few metres to the exit door. Pickup-truck pick up courtesy Jenna Didier, drove via airport exit traffic jam to Materials and Applications, silverlake boulevard, where coffee was warehoused for 6 nights. 19/1 walked silverlake to machine gallery in echo park, then picked up by jenna & truck driving downtown to LA Union Station. Amtrak signs stated that since 2004 passengers with more than 2 bags would be not allowed to board the train, no-one seemed to care. Pacific surfliner train to San Diego went slow but magnetic ocean views. Pickup at san diego station by gold pontiac and shannon spanhake, drove to san ysidro where the pontiac was parked for swifter border crossing by foot. walked 200m with bags along unmanned US exit border corridor, exited via giant turnstile, walked 30 seconds to Lui Velazquez.
