No sooner did my plane land than I had a voicemail from a long-time friend and colleague. I made it from the terminal to the SEPTA rail system, where I had a very pleasant ride to the University City station. From there, it was just a short walk to Houston Hall, where I registered and ran into more people I knew. I met my old friend for dinner and drinks, and here I am getting ready to sleep. Tomorrow begins ICHEP!
