After two very long days of travelling, we arrived in Battle Mountain on Saturday. The plane on Friday was delayed a bit, but we got on board alright. The que at the Immigration/Airport Security was long, but our bags arrived soon. When we got to pick up the bike at the Odd Size Luggage, we noticed that the bag was severely damaged, and the bike was also damaged. Sadly the luggage personnel did not want to give any service, we were only given a telephone number. Picking up the rental car took some time as well, it was very busy there.
Then it was time to pick up Sjaak at Oakland International Airport. He had travelled on Thursday to Oslo. We spent the night in Sacramento and travelled to Battle Mountain on Saturday.
