Why SFO?

My mistake , I confused the flight numbers, I mean LH 452 of course, with final destination LAX!
LH 458 does not even have F AFAIK.
Rain near Duesseldorf, and it is very windy, thus no golf today. Bremen-Munich 1:0.

But I have to return early tomorrow to make it in time for the final hockey game Dssseldorf vs. Cologne.
So I hope the sky above Dsseldorf will clear up.

Isn't FT nice, you immediately know where your (virtual and real) friends are and what they are doing. ^^^
Bremen is still up 1:0. Not a great match. I rather watch the Spurs-Mavericks Basketball game now which I have on tape.
Heavy rain now, dark sky, aweful.

Have a great remaining flight anyway. ^

SAN is quite nice as well. I just got up and can't really find clouds. Well 20 and sun is probably the perfect weather for the round of golf later on. Will return via LAX on monday and let you know if weather changed.

now is this force majeur?
Forgive me folks for hijacking the thread back to its original topic for a minute:
After some discussion with the SEN desk, LH returned to the view that the
cancellations were weather related. It wasn't the weather between FRA and
AMS but high winds whose delays caused them not to have enough birdies in
FRA and hence they had to cancel my flights to AMS.
Now as stated KLM flew that day without interruption (which I have in written)
and hence my pov was that I do not accept the weather card. Can they
really argue Force Majeur when the route in question is not subject to that
higher force?
Can they really dump all the blame on me for the fact that somewhere else
the sky wasn't as nice as LH likes it to be?
Does anyone know where to address this issue?

Thomas, where are you going to play golf near SAN ??
I can recommend Meadows Del Mar (now named the Grand Club http://www.thegrandgolfclub.com), Four Seasons Aviara, Maderas, Steele Canyon (good value, a little east of SAN, a bit warmer than on the coast). Torrey Pines is overcrowded.
DFW was indeed very nice this week, sunny and comfortably warm.

Just checked: Bottle is still there.
Of course, just in case, I brought a replacement cap.
