By the time the duo made it to California, Barbara was exhausted. They waited for their luggage by the carousel, where they had to fight, elbows bared, with the other passengers for a chance to spot their luggage.
Despite finally having their suitcases in hand, they had not yet won the war. Still, they had to catch a taxi (or 'cab' as Barbara was told to refer to them by), to their hotel and check in. The 'cab' was nothing like a taxi, in Barbara's opinion.
And while Barbara wasn't often the one to call anyone incompetent, the hotel had indeed come close to being listed under that adjective in Barbara's mind. Until they were upgraded due to a stuff up by someone, and their rooms being cancelled on them, then rebooked and moved over to some place else.
Eventually, she was able to collapse onto one of the beds. "I'm not getting up for several hours," she told Howard, muffled somewhat by the pillow she had landed face-first in.
