We made it to Oprah Land!

Turns out that the HQ for United wanted the pilots on the L.A. flight to put oil in the engine so they could fly.  However, because the pilots were not qualified to do so they didn't feel comfortable to do it. Also, because if anything went wrong, they would be culpable. So, United tried to send mechanics from Dulles to BWI to put in the oil. As we were leaving, the L.A. crowd was still waiting.  They also sent other pilots, but no word on what happened there. 

We took a "Go" shuttle to the hotel, and it really is a nice hotel.  We have Jr. Suites known as "Extra Comfy" rooms. They have microwaves, refrigerators, etc.  VERY comfortable beds! I know I am going to be happy about that later tonight! Will send some photos soon....
