Room service: cereal and 2% milk, a banana, orange juice, coffee with cream. Finished packing. Left the ship. Large shuttle bus from Port of Long Beach to LAX: about $52 for 2 people. Obtained boarding passes. Encountered difficulty getting to Encounter Restaurant. Nothing made this easy. One airport employee gave us obviously incorrect directions, and there are no signs to help pedestrians get there. Once we arrived, we found that it was closed, very disappointing. Back to the terminal. Stopped at Starbucks. Security checkpoint. Lunch at Gladstone's 4 Fish. Met Johnny and Rob, encountered Drew, Phil, and Laurence. Met Dean. Later we encountered Jeremy, Tim C, Andy, Scott, Andrew C. Virgin America flight from LAX to SFO. Taxi from SFO to home. Unpacked some, opened mail. Late meal: microwaved mixed vegetables from frozen.
